Representability conjecture for coordinate q-matroids
Representability conjecture for coordinate q-matroids
A coordinate -matroid is a -matroid whose cyclic flats are spanned by subsets of some linear basis. Its corresponding matroid is the matroid obtained from the coordinate representation by replacing coordinate subspaces with their corresponding subsets of the basis.
Representability conjecture for coordinate q-matroids. If the corresponding matroid of a coordinate -matroid is representable, then the -matroid is representable.
The preceding embedding results establish representability for certain coordinate -matroids, but the conjecture proposes that representability of the corresponding matroid always lifts to the -matroid.
