The complete classification of the orbits on subspaces under the action of the projective stabiliser of (classical) algebraic varieties is a challenging task, and few classifications are complete. We focus on a particular action of…

We investigate slicings of combinatorial manifolds as properly embedded co-dimension 1 submanifolds. A focus is given to dimension 3 where slicings are normal surfaces. In the case of 2-neighborly 3-manifolds and quadrangulated slicings, a…

This paper develops a new way to create smooth piecewise polynomial free-form spline surfaces from quad- meshes that include T-junctions, where surface strips start or terminate. All mesh nodes can be interpreted as control points of…

Let $P_N(R)$ be the space of all real polynomials in $N$ variables with the usual inner product $<, >$ on it, given by integrating over the unit sphere. We start by deriving an explicit combinatorial formula for the bilinear form…

An algorithm for generating interpolants for formulas which are conjunctions of quadratic polynomial inequalities (both strict and nonstrict) is proposed. The algorithm is based on a key observation that quadratic polynomial inequalities…

The Jack symmetric polynomials $P_\lambda^{(\alpha)}$ form a class of symmetric polynomials which are indexed by a partition $\lambda$ and depend rationally on a parameter $\alpha$. They reduced to the Schur polynomials when $\alpha=1$, and…

The problem of interpolation at $(n+1)^2$ points on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ by spherical polynomials of degree at most $n$ is proved to have a unique solution for several sets of points. The points are located on a number of circles…

We construct admissible polynomial meshes on piecewise polynomial or trigonometric curves of the complex plane, by mapping univariate Chebyshev points. Such meshes can be used for polynomial least-squares, for the extraction of Fekete-like…

In this paper, we show that the monomial basis is generally as good as a well-conditioned polynomial basis for interpolation, provided that the condition number of the Vandermonde matrix is smaller than the reciprocal of machine epsilon.…

Motivated by applications in robotics and computer vision, we study problems related to spatial reasoning of a 3D environment using sublevel sets of polynomials. These include: tightly containing a cloud of points (e.g., representing an…

In order to construct a $C^1$-quadratic spline over an arbitrary triangulation, one can split each triangle into 12 subtriangles, resulting in a finer triangulation known as the Powell-Sabin 12-split. It has been shown previously that the…
