In this work, we investigate isomorphisms of graphs associated with the 216 maximal self-complementary [Formula: see text]-codes over the genetic alphabet [Formula: see text]. Such codes play an important role in maintaining the correct reading frame during the translational process in the ribosome and have been classified into 27 equivalence classes under the action of the dihedral group [Formula: see text]. Naturally, this group action induces graph isomorphisms between the graphs associated with maximal self-complementary [Formula: see text]-codes, as shown in Fimmel et al. (2016). However, we demonstrate here that these induced isomorphisms of the associated graphs are not the only graph isomorphisms between such codes. Specifically, we calculate the largely non-trivial automorphism groups of all the 216 graphs associated to maximal self-complementary [Formula: see text]-codes and we show that no isomorphism exists between maximal self-complementary [Formula: see text]-codes belonging to different equivalence classes. Finally, we provide examples illustrating that the assumptions of maximality, self-complementarity, or the [Formula: see text]-property can not be omitted.

Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...

The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem
The load connected draws the current, and the circuit delivers the power to the load. The alternating current flowing through the load is determined using the rectangular form of voltages, currents, network impedance, and load impedance. The average power delivered to the load is obtained from the product of the square of current and load resistance.
