This is the final piece of the puzzle for enumerating fixed-rank matroids at this level of accuracy: the numbers of rank-1 and rank-2 matroids on a ground set of size n have exact representations in terms of well-known combinatorial functions, and it was recently proved by van der Hofstad, Pendavingh, and van der Pol that for constant r≥4 there are (e1−rn+o(n))nr−1/r! rank-r matroids on a ground set of size n. In our proof, we introduce a new approach for bounding the number of clique decompositions of a complete graph, using quasirandomness instead of the so-called entropy method that is common in this area."}],"publisher":"Academie des Sciences"},{"date_updated":"2026-07-14T09:19:20Z","date_created":"2026-06-29T11:00:09Z","date_published":"2020-12-03T00:00:00Z","month":"12","OA_place":"repository","publisher":"Académie des Sciences","oa":1,"author":[{"last_name":"Fox","full_name":"Fox, Jacob","first_name":"Jacob"},{"last_name":"Wigderson","id":"2d0023a0-1567-11f0-833d-d5c1e476d4b5","first_name":"Yuval","full_name":"Wigderson, Yuval"},{"last_name":"Zhao","first_name":"Yufei","full_name":"Zhao, Yufei"}],"abstract":[{"text":"We present a short new proof of the canonical polynomial van der Waerden theorem, recently established by Girão.","lang":"eng"}],"scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public","OA_type":"green","intvolume":"       358","volume":358,"year":"2020","publication":"Comptes Rendus Mathématique","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2005.04135","open_access":"1"}],"extern":"1","citation":{"ama":"Fox J, Wigderson Y, Zhao Y.
