Given a realizable matroid whose ground set elements are vectors, returns the matrix with those column vectors. If the matroid is graphical, then the graph with edge set equal to the ground set is returned (without loops or parallel edges, since the Graphs package does not support these).
i1 : A = random(ZZ^3,ZZ^5)
o1 = | 8 7 3 8 8 |
| 1 8 7 5 5 |
| 3 3 8 7 2 |
3 5
o1 : Matrix ZZ <--- ZZ
|
i2 : M = matroid A o2 = a matroid of rank 3 on 5 elements o2 : Matroid |
i3 : A == representationOf M o3 = true |
i4 : K4 = completeGraph 4
o4 = Graph{0 => {1, 2, 3}}
1 => {0, 2, 3}
2 => {0, 1, 3}
3 => {0, 1, 2}
o4 : Graph

i5 : M4 = matroid K4 o5 = a matroid of rank 3 on 6 elements o5 : Matroid |
i6 : representationOf M4 === K4 o6 = true |
The object representationOf is a method function.
