{0,1,2}(i.e. T0is the set of vertices, T1is the
set of edges, and T2is the set of triangles). We
will assume that T0={vi|i= 1,2, . . . , K},T1=
{ls|s= 1,2, . . . , L},T2={Tj|j= 1,2, . . . , N}.
Triangulation Tis also called a two-
dimensional (triangular) complex. A set-
theoretic closure union of points of triangles in the
triangular complex Tis called the body of the tri-
angular complex. The triangular body complex
is denoted by |T |. It matches with area M. The
triangular body border complex Tis the set ∂M.
Sets ∂T0def
={vi|vi∈ T 0, vi⊂∂M},∂T1def
=
{ls|ls∈ T 1, ls⊂∂M} with induced incidence
relations generate a one-dimensional complex ∂T
subdividing the boundary ∂Mof the region un-
der consideration M. Complex ∂Tis called the
induced boundary complex. Its body coincides
with the boundary ∂Mof the domain M.
Refining Ttriangulation Tis a new simplicial
complex. If at the same time the induced bound-
ary complex is preserved,
∂T=∂T,(32)
then the triangulation of Tis called refinement
with a stable boundary for the triangulation T.
In what follows, we associate the vertex viwith
the vector ri, emanating from the origin and end-
ing at the mentioned vertex. In the case under
consideration, a topological triangulation struc-
ture is described by an incidence matrix MTof
the size 3 ×N, whose i-th line contains the ver-
tices of the i-th triangle.
Remark 3. Changing the order of matrix
rows MTmatches the renumbered triangles, and
changing the order of the elements in any row
of the matrix does not change the incidence cor-
respondences between the triangle and vertices.
Thus, a matrix derived from the original one by
the mentioned transformations describes the old
topological structure of the triangulation. We
also note, that the duplication of the rows in the
incidence matrix does not violate the topologi-
cal structure of triangulation (because the ”mul-
tiplicity” triangles are not considered).
The barycentric star of vertex r∈ T 0is de-
noted by Z(r). The closure for the union of the
points of its triangles is called the body of the
barycentric star. The body of a barycentric star
is denoted by |Z(r)|.
Two triangles are considered adjacent if they
have a common edge. We will assume that each
triangle Tof the triangulation under consider-
ation has sneighboring triangles, where s∈
{1,2,3}. If s= 3 then triangle Tis called the
inner triangle of the triangulation T, and for
s∈ {1,2}the triangle Tis called boundary tri-
angle.
The set of neighboring triangles for Twith the
addition of the given triangle T, we call the a
star triangle T. The star of the triangle Twill
be denoted by Z(T). The set-theoretic union tri-
angles from Z(T) is called the body of the star
Z(T), and is denoted by |Z(T)|. Note that both
the barycentric vertex star and the star triangles
are regular triangulations (triangular complexes).
Therefore, it is possible to refine these triangula-
tions.
Consider an interior triangle Twith vertices
r1,r2,r3and its star Z(T). Select the fragment
MZ(T)of the matrix MTrelated to to the star
Z(T). In view of Remark 2 above, without loss
of generality, we have
MZ(T)= r1r1r2r1
r2r2r3r3
r3r5r6r4!T
