Title
Maximum Size Binary Matroids with no AG(3, 2)-Minor are Graphic.
Abstract
We prove that the maximum size of a simple binary matroid of rank r >= 5 with no AG(3, 2)-minor is ((r+1)(2)) and characterize those matroids achieving this bound. When r >= 6, the graphic matroid M(Kr+1) is the unique matroid meeting the bound, but there are a handful of matroids of lower ranks meeting or exceeding this bound. In addition, we determine the size function for nongraphic simple binary matroids with no AG(3, 2)-minor and characterize the matroids of maximum size for each rank.
