Abstract: Adaptive hexagonal meshes yield high-quality planar quadrilateral meshes, which are desirable in applications. We propose a concise exact representation for adaptive hexagonal meshes that is based solely on the faces. We represent each face by its position, type, orientation, and scale. Our representation is simple to use and requires a small fraction of the memory required by topological data structures. Although no other topological elements or relations are explicitly represented, the mesh and all its topological relations can be reconstructed in linear time.
