FA-88487 / Mesh topology invariants / Member archive

Opposite vertex is taken from a fixed corner · case 02

When the edge is not stored in the first two corners the link check compares against a or b.

Case contract

Input [faces, a, b] for a triangle mesh. Collapsing edge (a,b) is checked in order: missing edge -> [false,"no-edge"]; common neighbours of a and b must equal the opposite vertices of the triangles on the edge -> else [false,"link"]; if a and b are both boundary vertices the edge itself must be a boundary edge -> else [false,"boundary"]; a closed mesh with 4 or fewer vertices -> [false,"minimal"]; otherwise [true,"ok"].

Why this case matters

Mesh processing pipelines (remeshing, export, simulation, printing) trust these topological counts and adjacency answers; a wrong invariant silently accepts broken meshes or rejects valid ones.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
