摘要
The Wiener index W is the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices of a (connected) graph. Hexagonal systems (HS's) are a special type of plane graphs in which all faces are bounded by hexagons. These provide a graph representation of benzenoid hydrocarbons and thus find applications in chemistry. The paper outlines the results known for W of the HS: method for computation of W, expressions relating W with the structure of the respective HS, results on HS's extremal w.r.t. W, and on integers that cannot be the W-values of HS's. A few open problems are mentioned. The chemical applications of the results presented are explained in detail.
