FA-88601 / Mesh topology invariants / Open access

Welding compares faces without canonical rotation · case 01

The same face listed from a different start corner is kept twice.

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

ROOT CAUSE

Duplicate detection uses the face tuple as stored.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Rotate so the smallest id is first, preserving orientation.

Unsuccessful approach: Sorting the corners also merges faces with opposite orientation.

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.
