disk_conformal_map: Conformally map a simply-connected open triangle mesh to the unit disk
This code computes the disk conformal parameterizations (i.e. angle-preserving mappings onto the unit disk) of triangle meshes with disk topology using the fast method in [1], which has been applied for texture mapping, surface registration, mechanical engineering and so on.
Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

===============================================================
Usage:
- map = disk_conformal_map(v,f)
Input:
- v: nv x 3 vertex coordinates of a simply-connected open triangle mesh
- f: nf x 3 triangulations of a simply-connected open triangle mesh
Output:
- map: nv x 3 vertex coordinates of the disk conformal map
Remark:
- Please make sure that the input mesh does not contain any unreferenced vertices/non-manifold vertices/non-manifold edges.
- Please remove all valence 1 boundary vertices (i.e. vertices with only 1 face attached to them) before running the program.
===============================================================
Some possible extensions/applications are also provided:
- mobius_area_correction_disk (see demo_extension.m): We further reduce the global area distortion of a disk conformal parameterization while maintaining the conformality, using the Mobius area correction method in [2].
- remeshing (see demo_remeshing.m): We can perform remeshing via the disk conformal parameterization as described in [2].
