Detailed Description

Represents the set of all normal discs forming a normal surface.

These are stored as an array of NDiscSetTet objects, one for each tetrahedron.

Warning
This class converts the number of normal discs of a given type from NLargeInteger to unsigned long. See the precondition below.
Precondition
The number of normal discs of a particular type in a particular tetrahedron can be represented by a long integer.
This class should only be used with embedded normal surfaces.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

regina::NDiscSetSurface::NDiscSetSurface ( const NNormalSurface surface,
bool  b 
)
protected

Creates a new disc set corresponding to the discs of the given normal surface.

The array of tetrahedron disc set pointers will be created but the NDiscSetTet objects themselves will not be created.

This constructor should be called from constructors of subclasses who wish to use objects of a subclass of NDiscSetTet, which this constructor allows them to create for themselves.

Warning
After calling this constructor, each NDiscSetTet object in the discSets array must be created, since the NDiscSetSurface destructor will attempt to destroy them! The discSets array will have size surface.getTriangulation()->getNumberOfTetrahedra().
Parameters
surfacethe normal surface whose discs we shall use.
bthis parameter is ignored.
regina::NDiscSetSurface::NDiscSetSurface ( const NNormalSurface surface)

Creates a new disc set corresponding to the discs of the given normal surface.

Parameters
surfacethe normal surface whose discs we shall use.
virtual regina::NDiscSetSurface::~NDiscSetSurface ( )
virtual

Destroys this set of discs and deallocates all associated memory.

Member Function Documentation

NDiscSpec* regina::NDiscSetSurface::adjacentDisc ( const NDiscSpec disc,
NPerm4  arc,
NPerm4 adjArc 
) const

Determines which normal disc is adjacent to the given normal disc along the given directed normal arc in the surface described by this disc set.

A directed normal arc will be specified by a permutation p, where the arc runs around vertex p[0] parallel to the directed edge from vertex p[1] to p[2].

Parameters
discthe given normal disc; this must be a disc in this disc set.
arcthe given normal arc; this must actually be an arc on the boundary of the given normal disc (although it may run in either direction).
adjArcreturns the same directed normal arc that was passed, but expressed in terms of the vertices of the adjacent tetrahedron. Any value may be initially passed. If there is no adjacent disc/tetrahedron, this permutation will remain unchanged.
Returns
the normal disc adjacent to the given disc along the given arc, or 0 if there is no adjacent disc. This disc specifier will be newly created, and it is up to the caller of this routine to dispose of it.
unsigned long regina::NDiscSetSurface::nDiscs ( unsigned long  tetIndex,
int  type 
) const
inline

Determines the number of discs of the given type inside the given tetrahedron.

Parameters
tetIndexthe index in the triangulation of the tetrahedron to examine.
typethe disc type to examine; this should be between 0 and 9 inclusive. Disc types are outlined in the NDiscSpec class notes.
Returns
the number of discs of the given type inside the given tetrahedron.
unsigned long regina::NDiscSetSurface::nTets ( ) const
inline

Returns the number of tetrahedra in the underlying triangulation.

Returns
the number of tetrahedra.
NDiscSetTet & regina::NDiscSetSurface::tetDiscs ( unsigned long  tetIndex) const
inline

Returns the specific set of discs living inside the given tetrahedron.

Parameters
tetIndexthe index in the triangulation of the given tetrahedron.
Returns
the set of discs inside the given tetrahedron.
