Stationary subdivision schemes have been extensively studied and have numerous applications in CAGD and wavelet analysis. To have high-order smoothness of the scheme, it is usually inevitable to enlarge the support of the mask that is used,…

In this paper, we introduce a novel non-linear uniform subdivision scheme for the generation of curves in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq2$. This scheme is distinguished by its capacity to reproduce second-degree polynomial data on non-uniform grids…
Numerical solutions of differential equations are usually not smooth functions. However, they should resemble the smoothness of the corresponding real solutions in one way or another. In two of our recent papers, a kind of spacial…
