Περίληψη: Many geometry processing pipelines implicitly assume their input data is a manifold, or is sampled from one, with a unique tangent plane at every point. Geometric data, however, routinely contains sharp features like edges, corners, self‐intersections, branching junctions, and other singularities, rendering standard methods ill‐defined at these points. To bring geometry processing to these and other singular spaces, we introduce the “tangent blow‐up,” a representation inspired by algebraic geometry that restores structure at singularities by lifting to the product of the ambient space and the Grassmannian of tangent planes. After iterating this construction, points that coincide in position but differ in tangent direction, curvature, or higher‐order contact become well‐separated. We equip the tangent blow‐up with a product metric and define discretized differential operators, such as the gradient, divergence, and Laplacian, directly in the lifted domain. We demonstrate our framework across geodesic computation, segmentation, surface parameterization, and curvature estimation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
