%0 Journal Article %T On Matroids and Linearly Independent Set Families %A Giuliano G. La Guardia %A Luciane Grossi %A Welington Santos %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X New families of matroids are constructed in this note. These new fami- lies are derived from the concept of linearly independent set family (LISF) introduced by Eicker and Ewald [Linear Algebra and its Applications 388 (2004) 173-191]. The proposed construction generalizes in a natural way the well known class of vectorial matroids over a ?field. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1302.5654v1
