Derrida's conjecture for the critical resistance scaling constant

About 1 year old · traced to

Let RnR_n be the resistance in the critical resistance model, let pc=12p_c=\frac12, and let ceffc_{\mathrm{eff}} be the constant in the critical scaling conjecture for log⁡Rn\log R_n. Derrida's conjecture. The preceding conjecture should hold with

ceff=9ζ(3),ζ(3)=∑n=1∞1n3.c_{\mathrm{eff}}=9\zeta(3),\qquad \zeta(3)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac1{n^3}.

This is a refinement of the Addario-Berry et al. prediction, specifying its otherwise undetermined scaling constant; the source gives no resolution.
