Model sectors as contour cycles #
Hungerbühler--Wasem Proposition 2.2 decomposes a closed immersed curve, as a contour cycle, into
a cycle avoiding the distinguished point and one model-sector cycle for each crossing. The raw
model sector, its piecewise-C¹ regularity, and its winding number are constructed in
ModelSector.Closed; this file packages it as the closed-curve generator that the cycle
decomposition uses.
Main definitions #
Contour.modelSectorCurve-- the model sector as a closed piecewise-C¹curve.Contour.modelSectorCycle-- the corresponding one-generator contour cycle.
Main results #
Contour.Cycle.integral_modelSectorCycle-- its cycle integral is the raw contour integral.Contour.Cycle.windingNumber_modelSectorCycle_eq_raw-- its cycle winding number is the raw winding number.Contour.Cycle.windingNumber_modelSectorCycle-- at the sector center its winding number isα / 2π.

The bundled model sector starts at -r.
The bundled model sector ends at r + α.
The trace of the model-sector cycle is the image of its raw parametrization.
Integrating over the model-sector cycle gives the raw contour integral over the model sector.
The winding number of the model-sector cycle is the winding number of its raw parametrization.
The model-sector cycle has winding number α / 2π about its corner. This is the cycle
form of Contour.windingNumber_closedModelSector, ready to be summed in the finite crossing
