Chebyshev polynomials and spanning tree formulas for circulant and related graphs

چکیده
Kirchhoo's Matrix Tree Theorem permits the calculation of the number of spanning trees in any given graph G through the evaluation of the determinant of an associated matrix. In the case of some special graphs Boesch and Prodinger 9] have shown how to use properties of Chebyshev polyno-mials to evaluate the associated determinants and derive closed formulas for the number of spanning trees of graphs. In this paper we extend this idea and describe how to use Chebyshev polynomials to evaluate the number of spanning trees in G when G belongs to one of three diierent classes of graphs: (i) when G is a circulant graph with xed jumps (substantially simplifying earlier proofs), (ii) when G is a circulant graph with some non-xed jumps and when (ii) G = K n C where K n is the complete graph on n vertices and C is a circulant graph.

Let 1 s1<s2< · · ·<sk n/2 be given integers. An undirected even-valent circulant graph, C12k n , has n vertices 0, 1, 2, . . ., n− 1, and for each si (1 i k) and j (0 j n− 1) there is an edge between j and j + si (mod n). Let T (C12k n ) stand for the number of spanning trees of C12k n . For this special class of graphs, a general and most recent result, which is obtained in [Y.P. Zhang, X.Yong...

In this paper, we develop a new method to produce explicit formulas for the number τ(n) of spanning trees in the undirected circulant graphs Cn(s1, s2, . . . , sk) and C2n(s1, s2, . . . , sk, n). Also, we prove that in both cases the number of spanning trees can be represented in the form τ(n) = p n a(n), where a(n) is an integer sequence and p is a prescribed natural number depending only of p...

A formula for the number of spanning trees in circulant graphs with non-fixed generators∗
We consider the number of spanning trees in circulant graphs of βn vertices with generators depending linearly on n. The matrix tree theorem gives a closed formula of βn factors; while we derive a formula of β−1 factors. The spanning tree entropy of these graphs is then compared to the one of fixed generated circulant graphs.
