Most triangle meshes in practice do not exhibit desirable geometric properties, so we develop a solution that is independent of standard assumptions and robust to geometric errors. Specifically, we provide the first method for topology change applicable to arbitrary non-solid, non-manifold, non-closed, self-intersecting surfaces. We prove that this new method for topology change produces the expected conventional results when applied to solid (closed, manifold, non-self-intersecting) surfaces---that is, we prove a backwards-compatibility property relative to prior work. Beyond solid surfaces, we present empirical evidence that our method remains tolerant to a variety of surface aberrations through the incorporation of a novel error correction scheme. Finally, we demonstrate how topology change applied to non-solid objects enables wholly new and useful behaviors.","lang":"eng"}],"article_number":"34","month":"07","publist_id":"4435","quality_controlled":"1","date_published":"2013-07-01T00:00:00Z","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:45:41Z","pubrep_id":"604","day":"01","department":[{"_id":"ChWo"}],"publisher":"ACM","intvolume":"        32","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:57:50Z","issue":"4","volume":32,"file":[{"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:45:41Z","access_level":"open_access","file_name":"IST-2016-604-v1+1_toptop2013.pdf","relation":"main_file","checksum":"9c8425d62246996ca632c5a01870515b","creator":"system","date_created":"2018-12-12T10:09:43Z","file_id":"4768","file_size":3514674,"content_type":"application/pdf"}],"oa":1,"doi":"10.1145/2461912.2462027","title":"Putting holes in holey geometry: Topology change for arbitrary surfaces","year":"2013","publication_status":"published","citation":{"mla":"Bernstein, Gilbert, and Chris Wojtan. “Putting Holes in Holey Geometry: Topology Change for Arbitrary Surfaces.” <i>ACM Transactions on Graphics</i>, vol. 32, no. 4, 34, ACM, 2013, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1145/2461912.2462027\">10.1145/2461912.2462027</a>.","ieee":"G.
