Large-weight spanning-forest free-energy conjecture

From papers

Let f(w)f(w) be the spanning-forest free energy per site on a regular lattice of dimension d2d\geq2 and coordination number rr, and let f0f_0 denote the entropy per site for spanning trees on that lattice. The large-weight expansion conjecture. As w|w|\to\infty,

f(w)=logw+f0+12r1w+O(w2).f(w)=\log|w|+f_0+\frac{1}{2r}\frac{1}{w}+O(w^{-2}).

The conjecture is motivated by numerical fits for the square and triangular lattices and predicts the universal first inverse-ww coefficient in terms of the coordination number.
