Pairing of the eigenvalues of the signed adjacency matrix is a property of all graphs, not only those of fullerenes. Eigenvalues of this matrix are dependent upon the labelling of the graph and so are not structural invariants.
We have recomputed the isomer count for 60-atom fullerenes. We find 18 12 isomers rather than 1790 as reported earlier.
Several unique advantages of the Le Verrier-Fadeev-Frame method for the characteristic polynomials of graphs over the method proposed by Zivkovic recently based on the Givens-Householder method are described. It is shown that the Givens-Householder method proposed by Zivkovic, by itself fails for di
