compute_geometric_laplacian(vertex,face,type)
function L = compute_geometric_laplacian(vertex,face,type)

% compute_geometric_laplacian - return a laplacian
%   of a given triangulation (can be combinatorial or geometric).
%
%   L = compute_geometric_laplacian(vertex,face,type);
%
%   Type is either : 
%       - 'combinatorial' : combinatorial laplacian, doesn't take into
%       acount geometry.
%       - 'conformal' : conformal (i.e. harmonic) weights, 
%       - 'authalic' : area-preserving weights (not implemented yet).  
%       - 'distance' : L(i,j) = 1/|xi-xj|^2
