The asymptotic number of spanning trees in circulant graphs

Let T(G) be the number of spanning trees in graph G. In this note, we explore the asymptotics of T(G) when G is a circulant graph with given jumps.The circulant graph is the 2k-regular graph with n vertices labeled 0,1,2,…,n−1, where node i has the 2k neighbors i±s₁,i±s₂,…,i±s_k where all the operations are . We give a closed formula for the asymptotic limit as a function of s₁,s₂,…,s_k. We then extend this by permitting some of the jumps to be linear functions of n, i.e., letting s_i, d_i and e_i be arbitrary integers, and examining
