Fullerene (Version 4.4), is a general purpose
open-source program that can generate any fullerene isomer, perform
topological and graph theoretical analysis, as well as calculate a
number of physical and chemical properties. The program creates
symmetric planar drawings of the fullerene graph, and generates
accurate molecular 3D geometries by way of force-field optimization,
serving as a good starting point for further quantum theoretical
treatments.
It includes a number of fullerene-to-fullerene transformations, such
as Golberg-Coxeter transforms, Stone-Wales transforms, Endo-Kroto,
Yoshida-Fowler, and Brinkmann-Fowler vertex insertions.
The program is written in standard Fortran and C++, and
can easily be installed on a Linux or UNIX environment.
