Abstract
We present a method for the global parametrization of meshes that
preserves alignment to a cross field in input while obtaining a para-
metric domain made of few coarse axis-aligned rectangular patches,
which form an abstract base complex without T-junctions. The
method is based on the topological simplification of the cross field
in input, followed by global smoothing.

A recent trend is to first define a cross field C over M, and then
to find f such that its gradient vectors match C as much as pos-
sible. Interestingly, each of the criteria above can be redefined in
terms of desired properties of C. Thus the task is shifted from the
definition of a good parameterization to the definition of a good
cross field C for a given M. High quality parametrization can be
obtained following this approach [Ray et al. 2006; Bommes et al.
2009]. It is now appearent that the definition of a good cross field
C implies, among other things, the good placing of a few irregular
points (a.k.a. cone singularities). Irregular points tend to be needed,
for example, in places where M exhibits high Gaussian curvature.
In this paper, we focus on an important additional criterion for the
quality of f, which we refer to as the simplicity of domain D (see
below for an informal definition). Simplicity determines how much
a parametrization f will be effectively useful in most applications,
just as much as the other criteria listed above. As we will show, a
cross field C designed to satisfy all the above conventional criteria,
but not simplicity, will usually fail producing an acceptably sim-
ple domain. Still, it is often the case that a slightly modified cross
field C0
exists, which is able to generate a parametrization f with a
dramatically simpler domain, while preserving to a large extent the
other qualities of C. This work presents a way to obtain the cross
field C0
, given C.
1.1 Objective: Domain Simplicity
For topologies ofM other than the disk, the domain D must neces-
sarily include discontinuities (a.k.a. cuts, or seams): two infinitesi-
mally close points m0 and m1 of M lying of different sides of the
cut may be mapped by f 1
to arbitrarily distant positions d0 and d1
of D. The values d0 and d1 are often constrained to be reciprocally
associated with a “transition function” associated to that cut.
