Abstract

An explicit recurrence relation is derived for the matching polynomial of the general benzene chain B n . A table is given for chains of length up to 6. Explicit formulae are then obtained for the first five coefficients of the matching polynomial of B n . Finally, results are deduced for the number of perfect matchings and the number of matchings with two nodes.
