We discuss how Dokken's methods of approximate implicitization can be applied to triangular B\'ezier surfaces in both the original and weak forms. The matrices $\mathbf{D}$ and $\mathbf{M}$ that are fundamental to the respective forms of…
We propose a novel approach to the problem of polynomial approximation of rational B\'ezier triangular patches with prescribed boundary control points. The method is very efficient thanks to using recursive properties of the bivariate dual…
We develop an essentially algebraic method to study biharmonic curves into an implicit surface. Although our method is rather general, it is especially suitable to study curves into surfaces defined by a polynomial equation: in particular,…
We derive the implicit equations for certain parametric surfaces in three-dimensional projective space termed tensor product surfaces. Our method computes the implicit equation for such a surface based on the knowledge of the syzygies of…
We show that the implicit equation of a surface in 3-dimensional projective space parametrized by bi-homogeneous polynomials of bi-degree (d,d), for a given positive integer d, can be represented and computed from the linear syzygies of its…
A new parametric surface representation is proposed that interpolates the vertices of a given closed mesh of arbitrary topology. Smoothly connecting quadrilateral patches are created by blending local, multi-sided quadratic interpolants. In…
A parameterized surface can be represented as a projection from a certain toric surface. This generalizes the classical homogeneous and bihomogeneous parameterizations. We extend to the toric case two methods for computing the implicit…
A nonstandard application of bivariate polynomial interpolation is discussed: the implicitization of a rational algebraic curve given by its parametric equations. Three different approaches using the same interpolation space are considered,…
In this paper we describe an algorithm for implicitizing rational hypersurfaces in case there exists at most a finite number of base points. It is based on a technique exposed in math.AG/0210096, where implicit equations are obtained as…
The approach to curve implicitization through Sylvester and Bezout resultant matrices and bivariate interpolation in the usual power basis is extended to the case of Bernstein-Bezoutian matrices constructed when the polynomials are given in…
We present new, practical algorithms for the hypersurface implicitization problem: namely, given a parametric description (in terms of polynomials or rational functions) of the hypersurface, find its implicit equation. Two of them are for…
Illumination of scenes is usually generated in computer graphics using polygonal meshes. In this paper, we present a geometric method using projections. Starting from an implicit polynomial equation of a surface in 3-D or a curve in 2-D, we…
In this paper we establish square-function estimates on the double and single layer potentials for divergence-form elliptic operators, of arbitrary even order 2m, with variable t-independent coefficients in the upper half-space. This…
We show that the method of moving quadrics for implicitizing surfaces in P^3 applies in certain cases where base points are present. However, if the ideal defined by the parametrization is saturated, then this method rarely applies.…
Most genuine multi-sided surface representations depend on a 2D domain that enables a mapping between local parameters and global coordinates. The shape of this domain ranges from regular polygons to curved configurations, but the simple…

Lower bounds on the generation of smooth bi-cubic surfaces imply that geometrically smooth ($G^1$) constructions need to satisfy conditions on the connectivity and layout. In particular, quadrilateral meshes of arbitrary topology can not in…
