Abstract
We calculate zeros of the -state Potts model partition function on 'th-iterate Sierpinski graphs, , in the variable and in a temperature-like variable, . We infer some asymptotic properties of the loci of zeros in the limit and relate these to thermodynamic properties of the -state Potts ferromagnet and antiferromagnet on the Sierpinski gasket fractal, .
