contents This paper explains how to use quantum field theory techniques to find formal power series that encode the virtual Euler characteristics of $\mathrm{Out}(F_n)$ and related graph complexes. Finding such power series was a necessary step in the asymptotic analysis of $χ(\mathrm{Out}(F_n))$ carried out in the authors' previous paper.
