Abstract

Let M1,M2,...,Mn be 3-connected restrictions of a 3-connected matroid M on disjoint ground sets E1,E2,...,En, respectively. This paper proves that M has a 3-connected minor N that contains E1 UE2 U ··· UEn, has its restriction to each Ei, being Mi, and has at most 2n - 2 additional elements.
