An introduction to the $\mathcal F$-completion, the Interface construction and the Gamma set
I'll start off with a definition that might initially sound pretty abstract and maybe confusing. The point in defining things as I do is to make our lives easier later on. The goal is to focus on a symmetrical subspace of what I'll call the $\mathcal F$-completion. This subspace is called $\mathcal I$. So let's begin:
Let $X$ be a smooth, open, geodesically convex $n$-dimensional manifold with regular polytope boundary, and let $V = \{v_i\}$ be a finite set of vertices in $\partial X$. A block is defined as $\mathcal{B} := X \cup \partial X$, where $\partial X$ denotes the boundary.
A foliational completion (or $\mathcal{F}$-completion) of a block $\mathcal{B}$ is a structure obtained by extending foliations to accumulate at specific vertices in the boundary. Formally, for each pair of distinct vertices $(v_i, v_j) \in V \times V$, there exists a foliation $\mathcal{F}_{v_{ij}}$, whose leaves accumulate at $v_i$ and $v_j$. The $\mathcal{F}$-completion is the union of these foliations:
$$CX_V := \bigcup_{(v_i, v_j) \in V \times V} \mathcal{F}_{v_{ij}}.$$
Each foliation satisfies the condition:
$$\lim_{p \to \partial X} L_\alpha(p) = \{v_i, v_j\},$$
where $L_\alpha$ is a leaf in $\mathcal{F}_{v_{ij}}$.
The last condition ensures that the leaves each accumulate to pairs of vertices.
