On two classes of nearly binary matroids

James Oxley, Jesse Taylor

Published 2012-05-02, updated 2013-07-28Version 4

We give an excluded-minor characterization for the class of matroids M in which M\e or M/e is binary for all e in E(M). This class is closely related to the class of matroids in which every member is binary or can be obtained from a binary matroid by relaxing a circuit-hyperplane. We also provide an excluded-minor characterization for the second class.
