Let S be a finite set and let S 1 , S 2 , . . .
Question:
Let S be a finite set and let S1, S2, . . . ,Sk be a partition of S into nonempty disjoint subsets. Define the structure (S, I) by the condition that I = {A : |A ⋂ Si | ≤ 1 for i = 1, 2, . . . ,k}. Show that (S, I) is a matroid. That is, the set of all sets A that contain at most one member of each subset in the partition determines the independent sets of a matroid.
