The classical dimer model is concerned with the (weighted) enumeration of perfect matchings of a graph. An $n$-dimer cover is a multiset of edges that can be realized as the disjoint union of $n$ individual matchings. For a probability…

The dimer model is the study of random dimer covers (perfect matchings) of a graph. A double-dimer configuration on a graph $G$ is a union of two dimer covers of $G$. We introduce quaternion weights in the dimer model and show how they can…
