AbstractWe extend the notion of a minor from matroids to simplicial complexes. We show that the class of matroids, as well as the class of independence complexes, is characterized by a single forbidden minor. Inspired by a recent result of Aharoni and Berger, we investigate possible ways to extend the matroid intersection theorem to simplicial complexes
