چکیده

For each d > 0, we find all the smallest fullerenes for which the least distance between two pentagons is d. We also show that for each d there is an hd such that fullerenes with pentagons at least distance d apart and any number of hexagons greater than or equal to hd exist. We also determine the number of fullerenes where the minimum distance between any two pentagons is at least d, for 1 ≤ d ≤ 5, up to 400 vertices.

Classification of Fullerenes with Heptagonal Rings According to Boundary Faces

Fullerenes with pentagons, hexagons, and heptagons are considered. The type of boundary of heptagonal rings is studied; reported results show that the boundary is composed by pentagons, hexagons, and also, heptagons.

Large “Pillow” Fullerenes Hydrogenated at the Inter-sheet “Seam”

In a previous paper on large “pillow” fullerenes, various systems were described with 12 pentagons connecting 2 parallel hexagonal arrays of benzenoid rings (graphene fragments functioning as the faces of the “pillow”) on top of each other. Additional bonds between these identical arrays formed only from sphybridized carbon atoms gave rise to hexagons and 12 pentagons along the “seam” or “rim.”...

Geometry of Pentagons and Volumes of Fullerenes

We provide new proofs of some known facts from geometry of pentagons and hexagons and prove some new facts and formulas concerning areas. We reprove the Gauss pentagon formula, the hexagon analogue and show some consequences. We also give a new proof of the Robbins area formula for cyclic pentagons (and hexagons). This proof is intrinsic.We also prove formulas relating area, circumradius and si...

Fullerenes as Tilings of Surfaces

If a fullerene is defined as a finite trivalent graph made up solely of pentagons and hexagons, embedding in only four surfaces is possible: the sphere, torus, Klein bottle, and projective (elliptic) plane. The usual spherical fullerenes have 12 pentagons; elliptic fullerenes, 6; and toroidal and Klein-bottle fullerenes, none. Klein-bottle and elliptic fullerenes are the antipodal quotients of ...
