We introduce new linear operators for surface parameterization. Given an initial mapping from the parametric plane onto a surface mesh, we establish a secondary map of the plane onto itself that mimics the initial one. The resulting low-distortion parameterization is smooth as it stems from solving a quasi-harmonic equation. Our parameterization method is robust and independent of (the quality of) the initial map. In fact, for most cases the methods converges from a simple projection on the least squares plane even for complex models.
