摘要: The principle of affine symmetry is applied here to the nested fullerene cages (carbon onions) that arise in context carbon chemistry. Previous work on extensions icosahedral group has revealed a new organizational virus structure and assembly. This group-theoretic framework adapted physical requirements dictated by chemistry, it shown mathematical models for onions can be derived within this approach. suggests applicability wider nature, as well offering novel perspective geometric principles underpinning
