On two classes of nearly binary matroids

Abstract

We give an excluded-minor characterization for the class of matroids M in which M or M/e is binary for all e in E(M). This class is closely related to the class of matroids in which every member is binary or can be obtained from a binary matroid by relaxing a circuit-hyperplane. We also provide an excluded-minor characterization for the second class.
