We study the number of acyclic orientations on the generalized two-dimensional Sierpinski gasket SG 2,b(n) at stage n with b equal to two and three, and determine the asymptotic behaviors. We also derive upper bounds for the asymptotic growth constants of SG 2,b and d-dimensional Sierpinski gasket SG d.

Combinatorics International audience Consider spanning trees on the two-dimensional Sierpinski gasket SG(n) where stage n is a non-negative integer. For any given vertex x of SG(n), we derive rigorously the probability distribution of the degree j ∈{1,2,3,4} at the vertex and its value in the infinite n limit. Adding up such probabilities of all the vertices divided by the number of vertices, we obtain the average probability distribution of the degree j. The corresponding limiting distribution φj gives the average probability that a vertex is connected by 1, 2, 3 or 4 bond(s) among all the spanning tree configurations. They are rational numbers given as φ1=10957/40464, φ2=6626035/13636368, φ3=2943139/13636368, φ4=124895/4545456.

The crystal structure of several of the phases of ice shows a peculiarity associated with a special type of disorder: the one hydrogen atom between the two oxygen atoms is closer to one or the other of the two. This peculiarity depends only on the configuration and is independent of temperature. It gives rise to a finite entropy of ice, even at zero temperature, i.e. the residual entropy. This observation is used as a physical motivation to study a certain type of two-dimensional statistical mechanical models, the so-called vertex models, the exemplary vertex model being the ice model, for which we introduce the ice rule.
