Tóm tắt

We study how the $$\ell $$ -adic valuation of the number of spanning trees varies in regular abelian $$\ell $$ -towers of multigraphs. We show that for an infinite family of regular abelian $$\ell $$ -towers of bouquets, the $$\ell $$ -adic valuation of the number of spanning trees behaves similarly to the $$\ell $$ -adic valuation of the class numbers in $${\mathbb {Z}}_{\ell }$$ -extensions of number fields.
