Modularity and Structure in Matroids

This thesis concerns sufficient conditions for a matroid to admit one of two types of structural characterization: a representation over a finite field or a description as a frame matroid. We call a restriction N of a matroid M modular if, for every flat F of M, r_M(F) + r(N) = r_M(F ∩ E(N)) + r_M(...
