_topol_net.genus

Definition:

   
    The genus of the underlying net, defined as the cyclomatic number of
    its own quotient graph: g = 1 + e - v, where e and v are the number
    of edges and vertices in the quotient graph.  The quotient graph is
    a finite graph that contains all of the information of the periodic
    net: the vertices of the graph are the vertices of a translational
    repeat unit and the edges are all the edges of the repeat unit.
