/** \brief A class for non-conforming AMR. The class is not used directly
 *  by the user, rather it is an extension of the Mesh class.
 *
 *  In general, the class is used by MFEM as follows:
 *
 *  1. NCMesh is constructed from elements of an existing Mesh. The elements
 *     are copied and become roots of the refinement hierarchy.
 *
 *  2. Some elements are refined with the Refine() method. Both isotropic and
 *     anisotropic refinements of quads/hexes are supported.
 *
 *  3. A new Mesh is created from NCMesh containing the leaf elements.
 *     This new Mesh may have non-conforming (hanging) edges and faces and
 *     is the one seen by the user.
 *
 *  4. FiniteElementSpace asks NCMesh for a list of conforming, master and
 *     slave edges/faces and creates the conforming interpolation matrix P.
 *
 *  5. A continuous/conforming solution is obtained by solving P'*A*P x = P'*b.
 *
 *  6. Repeat from step 2.

       We must be careful to:
       1. Stay compatible with the conforming code, which expects top-level

          defined on a conforming mesh would no longer be valid when the
          mesh is converted to an NC mesh.

       2. Make sure serial NCMesh is compatible with the parallel ParNCMesh,
          so it is possible to read parallel partial solutions in serial code
          (e.g., serial GLVis). This means handling ghost elements, if present.

       3. Assign vertices in a globally consistent order for parallel meshes:
          if two vertices i,j are shared by two ranks r1,r2, and i<j on r1,
          then i<j on r2 as well. This is true for top-level vertices but also

   /** @brief The PointMatrix stores the coordinates of the slave face using the

       In 2D, the point matrix has the orientation of the parent
       edge, so its columns need to be flipped when applying it, see
       ApplyLocalSlaveTransformation.

       In 3D, the orientation part of Elem2Inf is encoded in the point
       matrix.

       The following transformation gives the relation between the
       reference quad face coordinates (xi, eta) in [0,1]^2, and the fine quad
       face coordinates (x, y):
       x = a0*(1-xi)*(1-eta) + a1*xi*(1-eta) + a2*xi*eta + a3*(1-xi)*eta
       y = b0*(1-xi)*(1-eta) + b1*xi*(1-eta) + b2*xi*eta + b3*(1-xi)*eta
