Rotation System - Characterizing The Surface of The Embedding

Characterizing The Surface of The Embedding

According to the Euler formula we can deduce the genus g of the closed orientable surface defined by the rotation system (that is, the surface on which the underlying multigraph is 2-cell embedded):

where denotes the set of the orbits of permutation .

Famous quotes containing the words characterizing the and/or surface:

    What ails it, intrinsically, is a dearth of intellectual audacity and of aesthetic passion. Running through it, and characterizing the work of almost every man and woman producing it, there is an unescapable suggestion of the old Puritan suspicion of the fine arts as such—of the doctrine that they offer fit asylum for good citizens only when some ulterior and superior purpose is carried into them.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Bees
    Shaking the heavy dews from bloom and frond.
    Boys
    Bursting the surface of the ebony pond.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
