The Whitney algebra of a matroid
algebra e geometria
The Whitney algebra is the analog for a matroid of the exterior algebra of a vector space. In this talk we describe the construction of the Whitney algebra and investigate its basic properties. In particular, we show that it is a universal object with respect to vector representations of a matroid. This is joint work with Henry Crapo.
