O(n² + n^ω)-time algorithm decides if branch-width of a matrix-represented matroid over a finite field is at most k.
A unified framework yields eight depth measures on matroids with six shown functionally inequivalent, two matching branch-depth and tree-depth, and all coinciding on matroids versus matrices over any field.
