Cyclic Critical Groups of Graphs

Combinatorics 2015-04-23 v1

Abstract

In this note, we describe a construction that leads to families of graphs whose critical groups are cyclic. For some of these families we are able to give a formula for the number of spanning trees of the graph, which then determines the group exactly. We also pose several open questions related to this work.
