contents If $M$ is a matroid, then a simple matroid $M'$ with the same rank as $M$ is an adjoint of $M$ if there is an inclusion-reversing embedding $ϕ$ of the lattice of flats of $M$ into the lattice of flats of $M'$ such that $ϕ$ maps the hyperplanes of $M$ bijectively onto the points of $M'$. In this note, we provide a proof that the class of matroids with an adjoint is minor-closed.

If $M$ is a matroid, then a simple matroid $M'$ with the same rank as $M$ is an adjoint of $M$ if there is an inclusion-reversing embedding $ϕ$ of the lattice of flats of $M$ into the lattice of flats of $M'$ such that $ϕ$ maps the hyperplanes of $M$ bijectively onto the points of $M'$. In this note, we provide a proof that the class of matroids with an adjoint is minor-closed.
