			/**
			GENUS.

			A topologically invariant property of a surface defined as
			the largest number of non-intersecting simple closed curves that can be
			drawn on the surface without separating it.

	  Roughly speaking, it is the number of holes in a surface.
			The genus g of a closed surface, also called the geometric genus, is related to the
			Euler characteristic by the relation $chi$ by $chi==2-2g$.

			The genus of a connected, orientable surface is an integer representing the maximum
			number of cuttings along closed simple curves without rendering the resultant
			manifold disconnected. It is equal to the number of handles on it.

			For general polyhedra the <em>Euler Formula</em> is:

				  V - E + F = 2 - 2G - B

			where V is the number of vertices, F is the number of faces, E is the
			number of edges, G is the genus and B is the number of <em>boundary polygons</em>.

			The above formula is valid for a mesh with one single connected component.
			By considering multiple connected components the formula becomes:

				  V - E + F = 2C - 2Gs - B   ->   2Gs = - ( V-E+F +B -2C)

			where C is the number of connected components and Gs is the sum of
			the genus of all connected components.

			Note that in the case of a mesh with boundaries the intuitive meaning of Genus is less intuitive that it could seem.
			A closed sphere, a sphere with one hole (e.g. a disk) and a sphere with two holes (e.g. a tube) all of them have Genus == 0
