Jan 6, 2010 at 22:13 comment added Michael Lugo But the Glasser-Wu paper is working over the triangular lattice; this is for the square lattice. Is there some reason the constants for the two lattices should be equal?
Jan 6, 2010 at 21:37 comment added Konrad Swanepoel So this shows that the asymptotics is in fact exponential in the number of vertices $n^2$.
Jan 6, 2010 at 21:35 comment added Konrad Swanepoel According to the paper by Glasser and Wu cited in Martin's answer, the constant near 3.21 is in fact exactly $\exp(\frac{4}{\pi}(1-1/3^2+1/5^2-1/7^2+\dots))$.
