Abstract: It is shown how exactly solved edge interaction models on the square lattice, may be extended onto more general planar graphs, with edges connecting a subset of next nearest neighbour vertices of mathbbZ3. This is done by using local deformations of the square lattice, that arise through the use of the star-triangle relation. Similar to Baxter's Z-invariance property, these local deformations leave the partition function invariant up to some simple factors coming from the star-triangle relation. The deformations used here extend the usual formulation of Z-invariance, by requiring the introduction of oriented rapidity lines which form directed closed paths in the rapidity graph of the model. The quasi-classical limit is also considered, in which case the deformations imply a classical Z-invariance property, as well as a related local closure relation, for the action functional of a system of classical discrete Laplace equations.
