Combinatorial maps

Sinopse

"Although they are less widely known than other models, combinatorial maps are very powerful data structures and can be useful in many applications, including computer graphics and image processing. The book introduces these data structures, describes algorithms and data structures associated with them, makes connections to other common structures, and demonstrates how to use these structures in geometric modeling and image processing. The data structures and algorithms introduced in the book will be available in a C++ library on the authors' website"--
