We introduce the $B$-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, which are the coefficients of the potential polynomials when we express them in terms of the monomials and the falling factorials, respectively. These numbers include, as…
It is broadly known that any parallelepiped tiles space by translating copies of itself along its edges. In earlier work relating to higher-dimensional sandpile groups, the second author discovered a novel construction which fragments the…
We define bicolored tilings as a disk with a collection of smooth curves with a coloring map on the tiles that these curves delimit. Using two transformations, we define an equivalence on tilings. We then define the Scott map which creates…
Probability density functions form a specific class of functional data objects with intrinsic properties of scale invariance and relative scale characterized by the unit integral constraint. The Bayes spaces methodology respects their…
This article introduces spotlight tiling, a type of covering which is similar to tiling. The distinguishing aspects of spotlight tiling are that the "tiles" have elastic size, and that the order of placement is significant. Spotlight…
A holonomic D-module on a complex analytic manifoldadmits always a b-function along any submanifold. If the module is regular, itadmits also a regular b-function, that is a b-function with a condition on the order of the lower terms of the…
Nonlinear approximation from regular piecewise polynomials (splines) of degree $<k$ supported on rings in $\R^2$ is studied. By definition a ring is a set in $\R^2$ obtained by subtracting a compact convex set with polygonal boundary from…
We present a method to compute a fitting curve B to a set of data points d0,...,dm lying on a manifold M. That curve is obtained by blending together Euclidean B\'ezier curves obtained on different tangent spaces. The method guarantees…
The edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals of Type $a^2bc$ are classified as $3$ classes: a sequence of two-parameter families of $2$-layer earth map tilings with $2n$ $(n\ge3)$ tiles, a one-parameter family of…
We uncover an unexpected connection between the physics of loop integrals and the mathematics of spline functions. One loop integrands are Laplace transforms of splines. This clarifies the geometry of the associated loop integrals, since a…
In this note we use techniques in the topology of 2-complexes to recast some tools that have arisen in the study of planar tiling questions. With spherical pictures we show that the tile counting group associated to a set $T$ of tiles and a…
In this article some explicit estimates on the decay of the convolutive inverse of a sequence are proved. They are derived from the functional calculus for Sobolev algebras. Applications include localization in spline-type spaces and…
Every normal periodic tiling is a strongly balanced tiling. The properties of periodic tilings by convex polygons are rearranged from the knowledge of strongly balanced tilings. From the results, we show the properties of representative…
Functions on a bounded domain in scientific computing are often approximated using piecewise polynomial approximations on meshes that adapt to the shape of the geometry. We study the problem of function approximation using splines on a…
A set of orthogonal polynomials on the unit disk $B(0,1)$ known as Zernike polynomials are commonly used in the analysis and evaluation of optical systems. Here Zernike polynomials are used to construct wavelets for polynomial subspaces of…
Inspired by the modelization of 2D materials systems, we characterize arrangements of identical nonflat squares in 3D. We prove that the fine geometry of such arrangements is completely characterized in terms of patterns of mutual…
Given a polytope $\sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^m$, its characteristic distribution $\delta_\sigma$ generates a $D$-module which we call the characteristic $D$-module of $\sigma$ and denote by $M_\sigma$. More generally, the characteristic…
A new global basis of B-splines is defined in the space of generalized quadratic splines (GQS) generated by Merrien subdivision algorithm. Then, refinement equations for these B-splines and the associated corner-cutting algorithm are given.…
One of the possible variants of the classification of trigonometric interpolation splines is considered, depending on the chosen convergence factors, the distribution of signs of the basis functions and the interpolation factors. The…
