Abstract
Topological Chern indices are related to the number of rotational states in each molecular vibrational band. Modification of the indices is associated to the appearance of ``band degeneracies'', and exchange of rotational states between two consecutive bands. The topological dynamical origin of these indices is proven through a semi-classical approach, and their values are computed in two examples. The relation with the integer quantum Hall effect is briefly discussed.
