Matchings and spanning trees in Boolean weighted graphs

It is shown that in a 0-sum Boolean weighted graph G the sum of the weights taken over all the spanning trees equals the sum of the weights taken over all the perfect matchings in the graph G − v, where v is any vertex of G. Several related theorems are proved which include parity results on perfect matchings and spanning trees in Eulerian graphs. The ideas on perfect matchings in 0-sum Boolean weighted graphs are generalized to matchings in any Boolean weighted graph.
