On April 6, 2021, Rutger Campbell from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group gave a talk at the Discrete Math Seminar on the difficulty of deciding whether a matroid given by the independence oracle is representable over the reals even if the matroid is representable over the complex field and is orientable. The title of his talk was “Matroid orientability and representability“.
