Graphs symmetry number

Provide a graph of the structure, the symmetry group, and the symmetry number of the following molecules (a) chlorobenzene, (b) 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene,... 

Some - shape descriptors and -> centric indices contain information about symmetry, while -> WHIM symmetry, - Bertz complexity index, - indices of neighbourhood symmetry, and - symmetry number obtained by the automorphism group of a graph are explicitly related to the symmetry. 

The proof is obtained by expanding the exponential. It is easy to see that all graphs in F are generated. The main difficulty is concerned with showing that the symmetry numbers of the product graphs are correct. Using the product theorem, it follows that... 

Fig. 2. Illustration of the definition of an articulation point. In the two graphs at the top, the points indicated by stars are articulation points. When these points are removed (leading to the structures drawn immediately below the graphs), the graph becomes disconnected and at least one of the disconnected parts has no root point and one or more field points. (The symmetry numbers of the two graphs at the top are 4 and 1.)...

Fig. 4. Illiistration the definition a residual. In the graph at the upper left, the pair points indicated by stars is a pair of reducible points. When the points are removed we obtain the structure at the upper right, in which there are two parts (the first being a dashed line bond and the second being a point with two solid-line bonds attached) disconnected from the roots. The three possible residuals of the pair of reducible points are shown on the second line. (The symmetry number of each of the four graphs is 1.)...

The integral contains a factor for the density point function for each field point and a factor for the appropriate bond function for each bond. The arguments of these functions are the coordinates corresponding to the labels on the graph. Moreover, if more than one bond of a type connects a pair of molecules, there is a numerical factor [N/(i,y) ] There is also a factor for the reciprocal of the symmetry number. Note that if the graph contains no root points, its value is just a number since all the x coordinates are integrated over. If the graph has m root points, where m 0, the value is a function of Xi,..., x ,. 

Here blackening a circle implies integration over the coordinates of the particle represented by the circle. Further generalizations of this notation to include the symmetry number of each graph and the concentration or density of the particles whose coordinates are being integrated over is a powerful shorthand it is described in texts and monographs (Friedman, 1985 Hansen and McDonald, 1986) to which the interested reader is referred to for additional details. 

Also depicted on the graph in Figure 8.5 is the number of moles of magnesium sulphate produced. It should be apparent that the two concentration profiles (for reactant and product) are symmetrical, with one being the mirror image of the other. This symmetry is a by-product of the reaction stoichiometry, with 1 mol of sulphuric acid forming 1 mol of magnesium sulphate product. 

Such a procedure corresponding to the permutation-nomenclature system of configuration 7> is in accordance with the fact that a chemical constitution is a representative of a product D, X. .. X Da of the double cosets D, of pairs of subgroups symmetric groups Sn,g. The latter correspond to permutations of atoms of the same element and the symmetry of the adjacent subset of graph points whose degree is compatible with the coordination number of the element equivalence class of the atom. 

In the "general index of complexity" (C ) proposed by Bertz, besides the number of connections, symmetry is also taken into account. Such an index, that incorporates concepts from the "graph theory" and the "theory of information" [7] is defined as ...
