One-ring overwrites a repeated spoke · case 04
Two faces leaving v along the same edge (a flipped neighbour) are merged into a plausible ring.
Case contract
Input [faces, v] with consistently oriented polygons. Each face containing v maps its next corner p to its previous corner q (counter-clockwise order around v). A repeated p is "nonmanifold"; no incident face is "isolated". If exactly one p has no predecessor the ring is a boundary fan starting there; more than one is "nonmanifold"; otherwise start at the smallest neighbour. Walk successors; a walk that does not visit every neighbour is "nonmanifold". Return [ring, "boundary"|"interior"].
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 fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| same spoke twice | [[1, 3], "boundary"] | "nonmanifold" | Failed |
