N2 - In this paper, we develop a new method to produce explicit formulas for the number τ(n) of spanning trees in the undirected circulant graphs C n (s 1 ,s 2 ,…,s k ) and C 2n (s 1 ,s 2 ,…,s k ,n). Also, we prove that in both cases the number of spanning trees can be represented in the form τ(n)=pna(n) 2 , where a(n) is an integer sequence and p is a prescribed natural number depending on the parity of n. Finally, we find an asymptotic formula for τ(n) through the Mahler measure of the associated Laurent polynomial L(z)=2k−∑j=1k(z s j +z −s j ).
