FA-88581 / Mesh topology invariants / Open access

Welding truncates negative coordinates toward zero · case 01

Points just left of a cell centre on the negative side weld with the wrong neighbour.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The cell key uses int() truncation instead of floor after adding 0.5.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use floor(c/eps + 0.5).

Unsuccessful approach: Python round() uses half-to-even and splits points on exact half steps differently.

Case contract

Input [points, faces, eps]. Points weld when floor(c/eps+0.5) agrees on every coordinate; the welded vertex takes the next new id and is represented by its lowest original index. Remap faces, merge consecutive equal corners (also across the wrap), drop faces with fewer than 3 corners, rotate each face so its smallest id comes first (orientation kept) and drop later copies of an identical rotated face. Return [representatives, faces].

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.

Verification & scope

Pure combinatorial teaching model over integer face lists with a stipulated contract; no geometry kernel or file format is implied. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.

Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:51:09.456660+00:00.
