Title
Towards a splitter theorem for internally 4-connected binary matroids IV
Abstract
Let M and N be internally 4-connected binary matroids such that M has a proper N-minor, and |E(N)|=7. As part of our project to develop a splitter theorem for internally 4-connected binary matroids, we prove the following result: if M@?e has no N-minor whenever e is in a triangle of M, and M/e has no N-minor whenever e is in a triad of M, then M has a minor, M^', such that M^' is internally 4-connected with an N- minor, and 1@?|E(M)|-|E(M^')|@?2.
