The simultaneous breadth-preserving minor conjecture for tangle truncations
The simultaneous breadth-preserving minor conjecture for tangle truncations
Let be a matroid with a tangle of order . For each , let be the truncation of to order . The simultaneous breadth-preserving minor conjecture. There is a -connected minor of such that, for all , the tangle generates a tangle in , and
This asks for one weakly -connected minor that simultaneously preserves the breadths of all truncations of a tangle; the paper leaves this simultaneous reduction open.
