چکیده
We describe a new algorithm that solves classical geometric problem: Find surface of minimal area bordered by an arbitrarily prescribed boundary curve. Existing numerical methods face challenges due to the non-convexity problem. Using representation curves and surfaces via differential forms on ambient space, we reformulate this problem as convex optimization. This change variables overcomes many difficulties in previous attempts allows us find global minimum across all possible topologies. The is based space does not require handling meshes. adopt Alternating Direction Method Multiplier (ADMM) surfaces. resulting simple efficient: it boils down alternation between Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) pointwise shrinkage operation. also show other applications our solver geometry processing such reconstruction.

Computing Discrete Minimal Surfaces and Their Conjugates
We present a new algorithm to compute stable discrete minimal surfaces bounded by a number of Þxed or free boundary curves in R, S and H. The algorithm makes no restriction on the genus and can handle singular triangulations. For a discrete harmonic map a conjugation process is presented leading in case of minimal surfaces additionally to instable solutions of the free boundary value problem fo...
متن کاملDigital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces
In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...

We present the computation modulo p2 and explicit formulas for the unique isogeny covariant differential modular form of order one and weight χ−p−1,−p called fjet, an isogeny covariant differential modular form of order two and weight χ−p2−p,−1,−1 denoted by fjethjet, and an isogeny covariant differential modular form hjet of order two and weight χ1−p2,0,−1.
متن کاملTubular Surfaces Extraction with Minimal Action Surfaces
This paper presents a new fast approach for surfaces extraction of tubular structures, such as blood vessels, tracheas, and colons. Since they are usually long and thin, when being extracted with the traditional Minimal Action Surface method, edges leakage problem could not be avoided. So a front freezing criterion based on the front's average energy is developed. To freeze the tail of the fron...
