We present an exact closed-form result for the asymptotic growth constant $z_{bcc(d)}$ for spanning trees on the $d$-dimensional body-centered cubic lattice. We also give an exact integral expression for $z_{fcc}$ on the face-centered cubic lattice and an exact closed-form expression for $z_{488}$ on the $4 \\cdot 8 \\cdot 8$ lattice.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-02-24T01:18:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spanning trees", "exact results", "dimensional body-centered cubic lattice", "exact integral expression", "asymptotic growth constant" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
