The increasing use of freeform optical surfaces raises the demand for optical design tools developed for generalized systems. In the design process surface-by-surface aberration contributions are of special interest. The expansion of the…
One of basic difficulties of machine learning is handling unknown rotations of objects, for example in image recognition. A related problem is evaluation of similarity of shapes, for example of two chemical molecules, for which direct…
Polynomial functions are a usual choice to model the nonlinearity of lenses. Typically, these models are obtained through physical analysis of the lens system or on purely empirical grounds. The aim of this work is to facilitate an…
We increase the scope of previous work on change of basis between finite bases of polynomials by defining ascending and descending bases and introducing three techniques for defining them from known ones. The minimum degrees of polynomials…
A set of exactly computable orthonormal basis functions that are useful in computations involving constituent quarks is presented. These basis functions are distinguished by the property that they fall off algebraically in momentum space…

The subject of this paper is the design of efficient and stable spectral methods for time-dependent partial differential equations in unit balls. We commence by sketching the desired features of a spectral method, which is defined by a…
This paper introduces a new method to stylize 3D geometry. The key observation is that the surface normal is an effective instrument to capture different geometric styles. Centered around this observation, we cast stylization as a shape…
We consider the presence of oscillations in the primordial bispectrum, inspired by three different cosmological models; features in the primordial potential, resonant type non-Gaussianities and deviation from the standard Bunch Davies…
A new formula is obtained in algebraic topology, in terms of Betti numbers, and a new method, called the spinal method, is suggested and developed for generating quadrangulations of closed orientable surfaces. Those surfaces arise as the…
It is common in Physiological Optics to fit the corneal and the lens surfaces to conic-based surfaces (usually ellipse-based surfaces), obtaining their characteristic radius of curvature and asphericity. Here we show that the variation in…

For Legendre curves, we consider surfaces of revolution of frontals. The surface of revolution of a frontal can be considered as a framed base surface. We give the curvatures and basic invariants for surfaces of revolution by using the…
In a previous paper [1] it was discussed the viability of functional analysis using as a basis a couple of generic functions, and hence vectorial decomposition. Here we complete the paradigm exploiting one of the analysis methodologies…
This paper is devoted to a study of the connection between the immersion functions of two-dimensional surfaces in Euclidean or hyperbolic spaces and classical orthogonal polynomials. After a brief description of the soliton surfaces…
Some particular examples of classical and quantum systems on the lattice are solved with the help of orthogonal polynomials and its connection to continuous models are explored.
Cone spherical surfaces are orientable Riemannian surfaces with constant curvature one and a finite set of conical singularities. A subset of these surfaces, referred to as dihedral surfaces, is characterized by their monodromy groups,…
