Last year, Izakhian and Rhodes developed a theory of representation of matroids by boolean matrices where all matroids become representable, unlike the case of classical representations over fields. In a joint work with Rhodes, we explore a similar approach in the context of finite graphs, leading to new notions of rank and independence of vertices and establishing new connections to matroid theory.
