Abstract
Although surfaces are more and more often represented by dense triangulations, it can be useful to convert them to B-spline surface patches, lying on quadrangles. This paper presents a method for the construction of coarse topological quadrangulations of closed triangulated surfaces, based on Morse theory. In order to construct on the surface a quadrangulation of its canonical polygonal schema, we compute first a Reeb graph then a canonical set of generators embedded on the surface. Some results are shown on different surfaces.
