Abstract
The topological resonance energies (TRE) for various fullerene clusters (C 20 to C 60) have been computed and based on this, stabilities of fullerenes are discussed. Trend in stability predicted by the TRE model is compared with predictions from the conjugated circuit model as well as the MNDO and ab initio methods. Reasonable agreement is found between the TRE model and rigorous quantum mechanical methods.
