Bidiakis cube Bidiakis cube In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Bidiakis cube is a 3-regular graph with 12 vertices and 18 edges. The Bidiakis cube is a cubic Hamiltonian graph and can be defined by the LCF notation [-6,4,-4]. The Bidiakis cube can also be constructed from a cube by adding edges across the top and bottom faces which connect the centres of opposite sides of the faces. The two additional edges need to be perpendicular to each other. With this construction, the Bidiakis cube is a polyhedral graph, and can be realized as a convex polyhedron. Therefore, by Steinitz's
Partial cube graph theory. A "benzenoid graph" is a graph consisting of all vertices and edges lying on and in the interior of a cycle in a hexagonal lattice. Such graphs are the molecular graphs of the benzenoid hydrocarbons, a large class of organic molecules. Every such graph is a partial cube. A Hamming labeling of such a graph can be used to compute the Wiener index of the corresponding molecule, which can then be used to predict certain of its chemical properties. A different molecular structure formed from carbon, the diamond cubic, also forms partial cube graphs. Partial cube In graph
