This is an expanded version of the two papers "Interpolation of Varieties of Minimal Degree" and "Interpolation Problems: Del Pezzo Surfaces." It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $\mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general…
In this paper, Hermite interpolation by parametric spline surfaces on triangulations is considered. The splines interpolate points, the corresponding tangent planes and normal curvature forms at domain vertices and approximate tangent…
In this paper we investigate the approximation properties of kernel interpolants on manifolds. The kernels we consider will be obtained by the restriction of positive definite kernels on $\R^d$, such as radial basis functions (RBFs), to a…
Space-filling curves like the Hilbert-curve, Peano-curve and Z-order map natural or real numbers from a two or higher dimensional space to a one dimensional space preserving locality. They have numerous applications like search structures,…
The polynomial kernels are widely used in machine learning and they are one of the default choices to develop kernel-based classification and regression models. However, they are rarely used and considered in numerical analysis due to their…
Gromov has shown how to construct holomorphic maps of the plane to a complex manifold with prescribed values on a lattice. In the present paper, a similar interpolation theorem for pseudo-holomorphic maps from the cylinder S to an…
We formalize a technique for embedding Riemann sufraces properly into \C^2, and we generalize all known embedding results to allow interpolation on prescribed discrete sequences.
In this paper we provide a computational approach to the shape of curves which are rational in polar coordinates, i.e. which are defined by means of a parametrization (r(t),\theta(t)) where both r(t),\theta(t) are rational functions. Our…
This paper advocates a novel framework for segmenting a dataset in a Riemannian manifold $M$ into clusters lying around low-dimensional submanifolds of $M$. Important examples of $M$, for which the proposed clustering algorithm is…
When representing a solid object there are alternatives to the use of traditional explicit (surface meshes) or implicit (zero crossing of implicit functions) methods. Skeletal representations encode shape information in a mixed fashion:…
We study Hodge Integrals on Moduli Spaces of Admissible Covers. Motivation for this work comes from Bryan and Pandharipande's recent work on the local GW theory of curves, where analogouos intersection numbers, computed on Moduli Spaces of…
In this paper, we investigate the interpolation of surfaces which are obtained from an isoasymptotic curve in 3D-Euclidean space. We prove that there exist a unique $ C^0 $-Hermite surface interpolation related to an isoasymptotic curve…
Capturing and maintaining geometric interactions among different body parts is crucial for successful motion retargeting in skinned characters. Existing approaches often overlook body geometries or add a geometry correction stage after…
Principally polarized abelian surfaces with prescribed real multiplication (RM) are parametrized by certain Hilbert modular surfaces. Thus rational genus 2 curves correspond to rational points on the Hilbert modular surfaces via their…
We introduce neural cortical maps, a continuous and compact neural representation for cortical feature maps, as an alternative to traditional discrete structures such as grids and meshes. It can learn from meshes of arbitrary size and…
Spline quasi-interpolation (QI) is a general and powerful approach for the construction of low cost and accurate approximations of a given function. In order to provide an efficient adaptive approximation scheme in the bivariate setting, we…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective algebraic variety over a number field $k$ and $P$ in $X(k)$. In 2007, the second author conjectured that, in a precise sense, if rational points on $X$ are dense enough, then the best rational approximations…
In this paper we study two separate problems on interpolation. We first give some new equivalences of Stout's Theorem on necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of points to be an interpolating sequence on a finite open Riemann…
It is well known that one can find a rational normal curve in $\mathbb P^n$ through $n+3$ general points. We prove a generalization of this to higher dimensional varieties, showing that smooth varieties of minimal degree can be interpolated…
