Abstract
We prove that the squared partition function of the two-dimensional critical Ising model defined on a finite, isoradial graph , is equal to times the partition function of spanning trees of the graph , where is the graph extended along the boundary; edges of are assigned Kenyon's [Ken02] critical weights, and boundary edges of have specific weights. The proof is an explicit construction, providing a new relation on the level of configurations between two classical, critical models of statistical mechanics.
