We present a new systematic method to construct Abelian functions on Jacobian varieties of plane, algebraic curves. The main tool used is a symmetric generalisation of the bilinear operator defined in the work of Baker and Hirota. We give…

This study aims to construct a stochastic process called "Brownian house-moving," which is a Brownian bridge conditioned to stay between two curves. To construct this process, statements are prepared on the weak convergence of conditioned…

B\'ezier curves provide the basic building blocks of graphic design in 2D. In this paper, we port B\'ezier curves to manifolds. We support the interactive drawing and editing of B\'ezier splines on manifold meshes with millions of…

By identifying a family of corner cutting schemes as a dimension elevation process of Gelfond-Bezier curves, we give a Muntz type condition for the convergence of the generated control polygons to the underlying curve. The surprising…

Bernstein polynomials and B\'ezier curves play an important role in computer-aided geometric design and numerical analysis, and their study relates to mathematical fields such as abstract algebra, algebraic geometry and probability theory.…

This paper considers the problem of regression over distributions, which is becoming increasingly important in machine learning. Existing approaches often ignore the geometry of the probability space or are computationally expensive. To…

In this paper we study "discrete polynomial blending," a term used to define a certain discretized version of curve blending whereby one approximates from the "sum of tensor product polynomial spaces" over certain grids. Our strategy is to…

To construct a curve with a monotonic curvature (spiral), and given tangents and curvatures at the ends, the author proposed the following method. From given boundary conditions, the values of two inverse invariants are determined. Then, on…

New differential-recurrence relations for B-spline basis functions are given. Using these relations, a recursive method for finding the Bernstein-B\'{e}zier coefficients of B-spline basis functions over a single knot span is proposed. The…

We propose a method to simultaneously compute scalar basis functions with an associated functional map for a given pair of triangle meshes. Unlike previous techniques that put emphasis on smoothness with respect to the Laplace--Beltrami…

We introduce a density basis of the trigonometric polynomials that is suitable to mixture modelling. Statistical and geometric properties are derived, suggesting it as a circular analogue to the Bernstein polynomial densities. Nonparametric…

In this paper, a feature extraction approach for the deformable linear object is presented, which uses a Bezier curve to represent the original geometric shape. The proposed extraction strategy is combined with a parameterization technique,…

We construct families of quartic and cubic hypersurfaces through a canonical curve, which are parametrized by an open subset in a Grassmannian and a Flag variety respectively. Using G. Kempf's cohomological obstruction theory, we show that…

This note contains a simple construction of complete sets of MUBs, using bent functions to write the new basis vectors as explicit linear combinations of the standard basis.

We define the type of a plane curve as the initial degree of the corresponding Bourbaki ideal. Then we show that this invariant behaves well with respect to the union of curves. Curves of type $0$ are precisely the free curves, while curves…

In this paper we present an efficient and robust approach to compute a normalized B-spline-like basis for spline spaces with pieces drawn from extended Tchebycheff spaces. The extended Tchebycheff spaces and their dimensions are allowed to…

In this paper we address the issue of designing developable surfaces with Bezier patches. We show that developable surfaces with a polynomial edge of regression are the set of developable surfaces which can be constructed with Aumann's…

The paper is concerned with three types of cubic splines over a triangulation that are characterized by three degrees of freedom associated with each vertex of the triangulation. The splines differ in computational complexity, polynomial…

In this paper, we construct a bijective mapping between a biquadratic spline space over the hierarchical T-mesh and the piecewise constant space over the corresponding crossing-vertex-relationship graph (CVR graph). We propose a novel…
