Let [Formula: see text] be the generating function for the number [Formula: see text] of spanning trees in the circulant graph Cn(s1, s2, …, sk). We show that F(x) is a rational function with integer coefficients satisfying the property F(x) = F(1/x). A similar result is also true for the circulant graphs C2n(s1, s2, …, sk, n) of odd valency. We illustrate the obtained results by a series of examples.

We consider the number of spanning trees in circulant graphs of ${\it\beta}n$ vertices with generators depending linearly on $n$. The matrix tree theorem gives a closed formula of ${\it\beta}n$ factors, while we derive a formula of ${\it\beta}-1$ factors. We also derive a formula for the number of spanning trees in discrete tori. Finally, we compare the spanning tree entropy of circulant graphs with fixed and nonfixed generators.

A recursive circulant graph G(N,d) has N = cdm vertices labeled from 0 to N - 1, where d ⩾ 2, m ⩾ 1, and 1 ⩽ c < d, and two vertices x,y ∈ G(N,d) are adjacent if and only if there is an integer k with 0 ⩽ k ⩽ ⌈ log d N⌉ - 1 such that x ± dk ≡ y ( mod N). With the aid of recursive structure, such class of graphs has many attractive features and was considered as a topology of interconnection networks for computing systems. The design of multiple independent spanning trees (ISTs) has many applications in network communication. For instance, it is useful for fault-tolerant broadcasting and secure message distribution. In the previous work of Yang et al. (2009), we provided a constructing scheme to build k ISTs on G(cdm,d) with d ⩾ 3, where k is the connectivity of G(cdm,d). However, the proposed constructing rules cannot be applied to the case of d = 2. For the integrity of solving the IST problem on recursive circulant graphs, this paper deals with the case of G(2m,2) using a set of different constructing rules. Especially, we show that the heights of ISTs for G(2m,2) are lower than the known optimal construction of hypercubes with the same number of vertices.
