For a fixed finite field F and an integer k there are a finite number of matroids of branch-width k that are excluded minors for F-representability.
## Abstract We prove that the rankβwidth of the incidence graph of a graph __G__ is either equal to or exactly one less than the branchβwidth of __G__, unless the maximum degree of __G__ is 0 or 1. This implies that rankβwidth of a graph is less than or equal to branchβwidth of the graph unless the
For all positive integers k; the class B k of matroids of branch-width at most k is minor-closed. When k is 1 or 2, the class B k is, respectively, the class of direct sums of loops and coloops, and the class of direct sums of series-parallel networks. B 3 is a much richer class as it contains infin
