Abstract

In this paper we recursively describe the Tutte polynomial of an infinite family of outerplanar, small-world and self-similar graphs. In particular, we study the Abelian Sandpile Model on these graphs and obtain the generating function of the recurrent configurations. Further, we give some exact analytical expression for the Tutte polynomial at several special points
