Resumen:
In this work, we begin from the octahedron with its eight triangular faces, we reached the icosahedron with 20 triangular faces, then to the icosadodecahedron with 32 faces, 20 triangular faces that caxne from the icosahedron and 12 pentagons. We describe two important methods for which this can be performed. Both methods are used in order to present the methods, and techniques needed for actual applications in many chemical applications. The basic fundamental methods are derived here. Through these manipulations we also describe the transformation through other chemically interesting geometries that are commonly encountered in group theoretical discussions. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
