Title
Extensions of matroid covering and packing.
Abstract
Let M be a loopless matroid on E with rank function rM. Let β(M)=max0̸≠X⊆E|X|rM(X) and φ(M)=minrM(X)<r(M)|E|−|X|rM(E)−rM(X). The Matroid Covering and Packing Theorems state that the minimum number of independent sets whose union is E is ⌈β(M)⌉, and the maximum number of disjoint bases is ⌊φ(M)⌋.
