  Article:   TOPOLOGICAL SYMMETRY OF TWO FAMILIES OF DENDRIMERS.

Authors:  .
 
       
         
  Abstract:  A dendrimer is an artificially manufactured or synthesized molecule built up from branched units called monomers. In this paper, the mathematical tools of group theory have been used extensively for the analysis of the symmetry properties of these macromolecules. We prove that it is possible to write the symmetry of a dendrimer, as wreath product of some finite groups. To prove, we consider two infinite classes of dendrimers and compute their topological symmetry groups.

Keywords: Symmetry group, dendrimer, wreath product.
