Matroids and blockers
Abstract
Let r and n be nonnegative integers such that r≤n. A uniform matroid of rank r and size n is a matroid on an n-element set where every subset of size r is a basis. In this paper we study kernels of pointed strong maps, modular flats and characterize uniform matroids using blocker notation.
