A nut graph is a graph of at least 2 vertices whose adjacency matrix has nullity 1 (i.e., rank n-1 where n is the order of the graph) and for which the non-trivial kernel vector does not contain a zero.
The graph lists are currently only available in 'graph6' format. The larger files are compressed with gzip. Please refer to [1] for more information on how these nut graphs were obtained.
The following lists are available:

The following table contains the counts of nut graphs among fullerenes up to 250 vertices. For those orders up to 250 where no count is listed, the implication is that there is no nut fullerene of that order. Fullerenes are cubic plane graphs where all faces are pentagons or hexagons. For more information on fullerenes, see the Fullerene page. The fullerene lists are currently only available in 'planar_code' format.
