Summary

The method for the contraction and expansion of graphs is used to treat the subspectrality of benzenoid hydrocarbons in relation to eigenvalues ±1. Counts of benzenoid hydrocarbons together with degeneracies of eigenvalues have been carried out for all species having h ⩽ 7 hexagons. In addition, twelve homologous series are evaluated, and the closed results for the distribution of eigenvalues ± 1 and degeneracies in terms of the number of repeated units are tabulated. This method is universal and applicable to cases sharing other eigenvalues and to nonbenzenoid systems.
