We study the local approximation properties in hierarchical spline spaces through multiscale quasi-interpolation operators. This construction suggests the analysis of a subspace of the classical hierarchical spline space (Vuong et al.,…
In this paper, we develop approximation error estimates as well as corresponding inverse inequalities for B-splines of maximum smoothness, where both the function to be approximated and the approximation error are measured in standard…
Given a spline space spanned by Truncated Hierarchical B-splines (THB), it is always possible to construct a spline space spanned by Locally Refined B-splines (LRB) that contains the THB-space. Starting from configurations where the two…
A "blendstring" is a piecewise polynomial interpolant with high-degree two-point Hermite interpolational polynomials on each piece, analogous to a cubic spline. Blendstrings are smoother and can be more accurate than cubic splines, and can…
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.…
A self-affine tiling of a compact set G of positive Lebesgue measure is its partition to parallel shifts of a compact set which is affinely similar to G. We find all polyhedral sets (unions of finitely many convex polyhedra) that admit…
In this paper we present a method for knot insertion and degree elevation of generalized B-splines (GB-splines) via the local representation of these curves as piecewise functions. The use of local structures makes the refinement routines…

Multivariate B-splines and Non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) lack adaptivity due to their tensor product structure. Truncated hierarchical B-splines (THB-splines) provide a solution for this. THB-splines organize the parameter space…
We introduce B-splines on the line of quaternionic order $B_q$ ($q$ in the algebra of quaternions) for the purposes of multi-channel signal and image analysis. The functions $B_q$ are defined first by their Fourier transforms, then as the…
We study the structure of the digit sets ${\mathcal D}$ for the integral self-similar tiles $T(b,{\mathcal{D}})$ (we call such ${\mathcal D}$ a {\it tile digit set} with respect to $b$). So far the only available classes of such tile digit…
The paper proposes, an algorithm to produce novel m-point (for any integer m>=2) binary non-stationary subdivision scheme. It has been developed using uniform trigonometric B-spline basis functions and smoothness is being analyzed using the…
Invariant-based models for incompressible isotropic hyperelasticity are typically formulated as functions of the first and second invariants, $W = W(\bar{I}_1, \bar{I}_2)$. A widely used class of models employs separable representations of…
We present computational methods for constructing orthogonal/orthonormal polynomials over arbitrary polygonal domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$ using bivariate spline functions. Leveraging a mature MATLAB implementation which generates spline…
Every simple quadrangulation of the sphere is generated by a graph called a pseudo-double wheel with two local expansions (Brinkmann et al. "Generation of simple quadrangulations of the sphere." Discrete Math., Vol. 305, No. 1-3, pp. 33-54,…
To understand an aperiodic tiling (or a quasicrystal modeled on an aperiodic tiling), we construct a space of similar tilings, on which the group of translations acts naturally. This space is then an (abstract) dynamical system. Dynamical…
We extend the concept of exponential B-spline to complex orders. This extension contains as special cases the class of exponential splines and also the class of polynomial B-splines of complex order. We derive a time domain representation…
A prescription for constructing dictionaries for cardinal spline spaces on a compact interval is provided. It is proved that such spaces can be spanned by dictionaries which are built by translating a prototype B-spline function of fixed…
Adapting the recently developed randomized dyadic structures, we introduce the notion of spline function in geometrically doubling quasi-metric spaces. Such functions have interpolation and reproducing properties as the linear splines in…
Approximate duals of B-splines were first used by Chui et al. (2004) for the purpose of constructing tight wavelet frames on bounded intervals. They are splines with local support, whose inner product with a polynomial in the spline space…
