Abstract

Fullerene graphs are mathematical models of fullerene molecules. The Wiener (r,s)(r,s)-complexity of a fullerene graph GG with vertex set V(G)V(G) is the number of pairwise distinct values of (r,s)(r,s)-transmission trr,s(v)tr_{r,s}(v) of its vertices vv: trr,s(v)=uV(G)i=rsd(v,u)itr_{r,s}(v)= \sum_{u \in V(G)} \sum_{i=r}^{s} d(v,u)^i for positive integer rr and ss. The Wiener (1,1)(1,1)-complexity is known as the Wiener complexity of a graph. Irregular graphs have maximum complexity equal to the number of vertices. No irregular fullerene graphs are known for the Wiener complexity. Fullerene (IPR fullerene) graphs with n vertices having the maximal Wiener (r,s)(r,s)-complexity are counted for all n100n\le 100 (n136n\le 136) and small rr and ss. The irregular fullerene graphs are also presented.
