Modifications of Tutte-Grothendieck invariants and Tutte polynomials
Martin Kochol

TL;DR
This paper introduces modifications to Tutte-Grothendieck invariants and Tutte polynomials for matroids, aligning the contraction-deletion rule for loops and isthmuses with the general case, simplifying their computation.
Contribution
It presents a new transformation of Tutte-Grothendieck invariants that standardizes the contraction-deletion rule for all elements in matroids.
Findings
Unified contraction-deletion rule for loops and isthmuses
Simplified computation of Tutte polynomials
Enhanced understanding of matroid invariants
Abstract
We transform Tutte-Grothedieck invariants thus also Tutte polynomials on matroids so that the contraction-deletion rule for loops (isthmuses) coincides with the general case.
