Abstract
A new one-dimensional model is proposed for the low-energy vibrational quantum dynamics of CH 5 +based on the motion of an effective particle confined to a 60-vertex graphΓ 60with a single edge length parameter. Within this model, the quantum states of CH 5 +are obtained in analytic form and are related to combinatorial properties ofΓ 60. The bipartite structure ofΓ 60gives a simple explanation for curious symmetries observed in numerically exact variational calculations on CH 5 +
