FA-88512 / Mesh topology invariants / Member archive

Loop subdivision inserts a vertex per face instead of per edge · case 02

Vertex predictions are low for every mesh.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 7 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input [V,E,arities,B,scheme,levels]: counts of a mesh with face sizes "arities" and B boundary edges. Loop (triangles only, else "non-triangle"): V+=E, E=2E+3F, F=4F. Catmull-Clark: V=V+E+F, E=2E+sum(arities), faces become sum(arities) quads. Boundary edges double per level. Return [V,E,F,B,V-E+F] after the given levels.

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
