The dilute Temperley-Lieb O($n=1$) loop model on a semi infinite strip:   the sum rule
  This is the second part of our study of the ground state eigenvector of the transfer matrix of the dilute Temperley-Lieb loop model with the loop weight $n=1$ on a semi infinite strip of width $L$. We focus here on the computation of the normalization (otherwise called the sum rule) $Z_L$ of the ground state eigenvector, which is also the partition function of the critical site percolation model. The normalization $Z_L$ is a symmetric polynomial in the inhomogeneities of the lattice $z_1,..,z_L$. This polynomial satisfies several recurrence relations which we solve independently in terms of Jacobi-Trudi like determinants. Thus we provide a few determinantal expressions for the normalization $Z_L$.
