摘要：Searching for the explicit solutions of the potential function in an arbitrary resistor network is important but difficult in physics. We investigate the problem of potential formula in an arbitrary m × n globe network of resistors, which has not been resolved before (the previous study only calculated the resistance). In this paper, an exact potential formula of an arbitrary m × n globe network is discovered by means of the Recursion-Transform method with current parameters (RT-I). The key process of RT method is to set up matrix equation and to transform two-dimensional matrix equation into one-dimensional matrix equation. In order to facilitate practical application, we deduced a series of interesting results of potential by means of the general formula, and the effective resistance between two nodes in the m × n globe network is derived naturally by making use of potential formula.
