Determinants of Laplacians on discretizations of flat surfaces and analytic torsion

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We study the asymptotic expansion of the determinants of the graph Laplacians associated to discretizations of a half-translation surface endowed with a unitary flat vector bundle. By doing so, over the discretizations, we relate the asymptotic expansion of the number of spanning trees and the partition function of cycle-rooted spanning forests, weighted by the monodromy of the unitary connection of the vector bundle, to the corresponding zeta-regularized determinants.
