The Jacobian of a Sixth-Root-of-Unity Matroid

The Jacobian group (also called the sandpile group, Picard group, or critical group) of a graph or, more generally, of a regular matroid has been well studied. Sixth-root-of-unity matroids, also called complex unimodular matroids, are generalizations of regular matroids. This paper provides a definition, and establishes some basic properties, of the Jacobian group of a sixth-root-of-unity matroid.
