Spline functions have long been used in numerical solution of differential equations. Recently it revives as isogeometric analysis, which offers integration of finite element analysis and NURBS based CAD into a single unified process.…
In the present paper, using S.L. Sobolev's method, interpolation spline that minimizes the expression $\int_0^1(\varphi^{(m)}(x)+\omega^2\varphi^{(m-2)}(x))^2dx$ in the $K_2(P_m)$ space are constructed. Explicit formulas for the…
Pseudo-splines form a family of subdivision schemes that provide a natural blend between interpolating schemes and approximating schemes, including the Dubuc-Deslauriers schemes and B-spline schemes. Using a generating function approach, we…

Subdivision schemes are iterative methods for the design of smooth curves and surfaces. Any linear subdivision scheme can be identified by a sequence of Laurent polynomials, also called subdivision symbols, which describe the linear rules…
