Abstract

The algebraic description of states of atomic vectors and their interconversions in a form of 9-dimensional vectors is suggested. The elaborated algorithms LENGTH and PATH calculate the distance between two states of an atomic vector and construct all possible shortest paths between them, respectively. Illustrative applications demonstrate the chemical impact and interpretation of the theory.
