The numbers of fullerenes on ,
22, 24, ... vertices (counting enantiomers
as equivalent) are given by 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 6, 6, 15, 17, 40, 45, 89, ... (OEIS
A007894). Fullerenes can be enumerated and
generated using the programs plantri and fullgen.
While almost all small fullerenes have fractional chromatic number 5/2, those listed in the following table (indexed according
to Brinkmann and McKay) do not.
