Matchings in m-generalized fullerene graphs

Abstract: A connected planar graph is called m-generalized fullerene if two of its faces are mgons and all other faces are pentagons and hexagons. In this paper we first determine some structural properties of m-generalized fullerenes and then use them to obtain new results on the enumerative aspects of perfect matchings in such graphs. We provide both upper and lower bounds on the number of perfect matchings in m-generalized fullerene graphs and state exact results in some special cases.

“…Therefore, it would be interesting to know, which fullerenes are ndistance-balanced at least for some values of n (for example, for n ∈ {1, 2, D}, where D is the diameter of a fullerene in question). For more on fullerenes see [2,5,18].…”
