Discrete Surface Ricci Flow
[chapter]
2013
SpringerBriefs in Mathematics
This work introduces a unified framework for discrete surface Ricci flow algorithms, including spherical, Euclidean, and hyperbolic Ricci flows, which can design Riemannian metrics on surfaces with arbitrary topologies by user-defined Gaussian curvatures. Furthermore, the target metrics are conformal (angle-preserving) to the original metrics. Ricci flow conformally deforms the Riemannian metric on a surface according to its induced curvature, such that the curvature evolves like a heat
