A method for locally injective seamless parametrization of triangular mesh surfaces of arbitrary topology, given desired cone points and holonomy angles that are rational multiples of 2Pi. The basis of the method is an elegant generalization of Tutte's "spring embedding theorem" to this setting.

This work presents an extension of Tutte's embedding (a method to bijectively embed a mesh via a harmonic map) to the spherical orbifold case. This extension is the last of the three classic geometries, following the Euclidean and hyperbolic cases.

This paper introduces a class of global surface parametrizations (seamless similarity maps) and a class of surface constructions (T-splines with half-edge knots) that are a perfect match for the task of constructing smooth surfaces with any desired topological structure.
