On n-connected splitting matroids

In general, the splitting operation on a binary matroid M does not preserve the connectivity of M. In this paper, we provide sufficient conditions to preserve n-connectedness of a binary matroid under splitting operation. As a consequence, for an (n+1)-connected binary matroid M, we give a precise c...
