We aim at constructing a smooth basis for isogeometric function spaces on domains of reduced geometric regularity. In this context an isogeometric function is the composition of a piecewise rational function with the inverse of a piecewise…
We introduce the arithmetic width of a convex body, defined as the number of distinct values a linear functional attains on the lattice points within the body. Arithmetic width refines lattice width by detecting gaps in the lattice point…
Similarly to the classic notion in $E^d$, a subset of a positive diameter below $\frac{\pi}{2}$ of a hemisphere of the sphere $S^d$ is called complete, provided adding any extra point increases its diameter. Complete sets are convex bodies…
In this paper we develop a concrete way to construct bodies of constant width in dimension three. They are constructed from special embeddings of self-dual graphs.
In this paper we present a unique 4-dimensional body of constant width based on the classical notion of focal conics.
The parametrization theorem is derived in a flat nD pseudo-complex affine space. The pseudo-complex hyperbolic space accomodates n-number of uncompactified time-like extra dimensions with sugnature (s,r), where s and r are the numbers of…
Straight lines are common features in human made environments, which makes them a frequently explored feature for control applications. Many control schemes, like Visual Servoing, require the 3D parameters of the features to be estimated.…
Smooth parametrization consists in a subdivision of the mathematical objects under consideration into simple pieces, and then parametric representation of each piece, while keeping control of high order derivatives. The main goal of the…

Tube-like surfaces are widely encountered in geometry processing, engineering structures, and medical anatomy, yet their intrinsic longitudinal and circumferential topology is not well preserved by conventional planar annular or rectangular…
The present paper provides a general formula for the dimension of spline space over T-meshes using smoothing cofactor-conformality method. And we introduce a new notion, Diagonalizable T-mesh, over which the dimension formula is only…
A variant of the flatness problem from integer programming is studied, in which one considers convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with at most $k$ interior lattice points. The maximum lattice width of such a body is denoted by Flt(d,k) and it…
There is a constant c contained in the famous radial basis function shifted surface spline. It's called shape parameter. RBF people only know that this constant is very influential, while its optimal choice is unknown. This paper presents…
The paper discusses an applicability criterion for a cutoff regularization in the coordinate representation in the Euclidean space with a dimension larger than two. It is shown that the set of functions satisfying the criterion is not…
The current paper discusses some new results about conformal polynomic surface parameterizations. A new theorem is proved: Given a conformal polynomic surface parameterization of any degree it must be harmonic on each component. As a first…
The goal of this paper is to present a lower bound for the Mahler volume of at least 4-dimensional symmetric convex bodies. We define a computable dimension dependent constant through a 2-dimensional variational (max-min) procedure and…
A reliable estimation of 3D parameters is a must for several applications like planning and control. Included in the latter is the Image-Based Visual Servoing, whose control scheme depends directly on 3D parameters e.g. depth of points, and…
Let $K$ be a convex body (a non-empty compact convex set) in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. A set $B$ is called a barrier (or an `opaque set') for $K$ if every line that intersects $K$, also intersects $B$. Although this concept was…
