The method computes probabilities for small collections of edges from determinants, even when the graph is large. The relevant matrix entries depend on global electrical information, so a small determinant does not mean the problem is entirely local. This distinction is essential in extending the calculations to infinite periodic graphs.<Local Characteristics, Entropy and Limit Theorems for Spanning Trees and Domino Tilings via Transfer-Impedances by Robert Burton and Robin Pemantle>[Abstract and Theorem 1.1]{ref}
