Abstract
In this study, we describe a geometric model of a fullerene molecule with Ih symmetry. We combine the well known non-Abelian monopole approach and the geometric theory of defects, where every topological defect is associated with curvature and torsion, to describe a fullerene molecule. The geometric theory of defects in solids is used to consider the topological defects that allow this molecule to form and we apply a continuum formulation to describe this spherical geometry in the presence of an external Aharonov–Bohm flux. We solve a Dirac equation for this model and obtain the eigenvalues and eigenfunction of the Hamiltonian, and we obtain the persistent current for this model and show that it depends on the geometrical and topological properties of the fullerene.
