Single-Cycle Plain-Woven Objects
—It has recently been shown that if we twist an arbitrary subset of edges of a mesh on an orientable surface, the resulting extended graph rotation system (EGRS) can be used to i...

A New Paradigm for Changing Topology during Subdivision Modeling
In this paper, we present a new paradigm that allows dynamically changing the topology of 2-manifold polygonal meshes. Our new paradigm always guarantees topological consistency o...

A Tool for Visualizing the Topology of Three-Dimensional Vector Fields
We describe a software system, TOPO, that numerically analyzes and graphically displays topological aspects of a three dimensional vector field, v, to produce a single, relativel...
