• The evaluation function f is defined by f=2×F4 + F5 + 2×F7 + 3×F8 + 4×F9 + 5×F10 where Fn means the number of n-membered rings. Those products whose function value exceeds that of (the minimum f in the previous step) + 2 are excluded. The purpose of using the evaluation function is to restrict the later pathways only to those which direct themselves toward the fullerene formation. However, the restriction by evaluation function is not necessary for fullerenes smaller than C100 as described in ref. 7
