Toric B\'ezier patches generalize the classical tensor-product triangular and rectangular B\'ezier surfaces, extensively used in $CAGD$. The construction of toric B\'ezier surfaces corresponding to multi-sided convex hulls for known…
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…
The control polygon of a Bezier curve is well-defined and has geometric significance---there is a sequence of weights under which the limiting position of the curve is the control polygon. For a Bezier surface patch, there are many possible…
We present a framework for characterizing injectivity of classes of maps (on cosets of a linear subspace) by injectivity of classes of matrices. Using our formalism, we characterize injectivity of several classes of maps, including…
Matrix weighted rational B\'{e}zier curves can represent complex curve shapes using small numbers of control points and clear geometric definitions of matrix weights. Explicit formulae are derived to convert matrix weighted rational…
Bezier parametric patches are used in engineering practice quite often, especially in CAD/CAM systems oriented to mechanical design. In many cases quadrilateral meshes are used for tessellation of parameters domain. We propose a new…
The construction of parametric curve and surface plays important role in computer aided geometric design (CAGD), computer aided design (CAD), and geometric modeling. In this paper, we define a new kind of blending functions associated with…
We propose a sufficient condition for invertibility of a polynomial mapping function defined on a cube or simplex. This condition is applicable to finite element analysis using curved meshes. The sufficient condition is based on an analysis…
In this paper we show that a surface in P^3 parametrized over a 2-dimensional toric variety T can be represented by a matrix of linear syzygies if the base points are finite in number and form locally a complete intersection. This…
We consider the problem of the observability of positively expansive maps by the time series associated to continuous real functions. For this purpose we prove a general result on the generic observability of a locally injective map of a…
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…
We classify the homogeneous polynomials in three variables whose toric polar linear system defines a Cremona transformation. This classification also includes, as a proper subset, the classification of toric surface patches from geometric…
In this paper we present an algorithm for computing a matrix representation for a surface in P^3 parametrized over a 2-dimensional toric variety T. This algorithm follows the ideas of [Botbol-Dickenstein-Dohm-09] and it was implemented in…
S-patches have many nice mathematical properties. It is known since their first appearance, that any regular S-patch can be exactly converted into a trimmed rational B\'ezier surface. This is a big advantage compared to other multi-sided…
We give a precise mathematical formulation for the notions of a parametric patch and linear precision, and establish their elementary properties. We relate linear precision to the geometry of a particular linear projection, giving necessary…
We introduce B\'{e}zier projection as an element-based local projection methodology for B-splines, NURBS, and T-splines. This new approach relies on the concept of B\'{e}zier extraction and an associated operation introduced here, spline…
We propose a patchwise local Fourier extension method for approximating smooth functions on general two dimensional domains with curved boundaries. The domain is embedded into a Cartesian background grid and decomposed into rectangular…
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…
In this article we describe a program -- called planar_draw -- to draw maps on oriented surfaces in the plane. The drawings are coded as tikz files that can easily be manipulated and used in latex documents. Next to plane maps -- a case for…
We produce implicit equations for general biquadratic (order 2x2) B\'ezier triangle and quadrilateral surface patches and provide function evaluation code, using modern computing resources to exploit old algebraic construction techniques.
