Abstract
A molecular graph is a graph such that its vertices correspond to the atoms and the edges to the bonds of a given molecule. Fullerenes are molecules in the form of polyhedral closed cages made up entirely of n three-coordinate carbon atoms and having 12 pentagonal and (n/2–10) hexagonal faces, where n is equal or greater than 20. The molecular graph of a fullerene is called fullerene graph. In this chapter, the fullerene graphs under two new distance-based topological indices are investigated. Some open questions are also presented.
