In this paper we provide, first, a general symbolic algorithm for computing the symmetries of a given rational surface, based on the classical differential invariants of surfaces, i.e. Gauss curvature and mean curvature. In practice, the…

Converting quad meshes to smooth manifolds, guided subdivision offers a way to combine the good highlight line distributions of recent G-spline constructions with the refinability of subdivision surfaces. Specifically, we present a C2…

We present a method for fitting monotone curves using cubic B-splines, which is equivalent to putting a monotonicity constraint on the coefficients. We explore different ways of enforcing this constraint and analyze their theoretical and…

We prove that Gabor systems generated by certain scaled B-splines can be considered as perturbations of the Gabor systems generated by the Gaussian, with a deviation within an arbitrary small tolerance whenever the order $N$ of the B-spline…

We point out an explicit connection between graphs drawn on compact Riemann surfaces defined over the field $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ of algebraic numbers --- so-called Grothendieck's {\it dessins d'enfants} --- and a wealth of distinguished…

In this paper we discuss the variety of planar spiral segments and their applications in objects in both the real and artificial world. The discussed curves with monotonic curvature function are well-known in geometric modelling and…

We analyze the space of differentiable functions on a quad-mesh $\cM$, which are composed of 4-split spline macro-patch elements on each quadrangular face. We describe explicit transition maps across shared edges, that satisfy conditions…

We proposed a new penalized B-splines estimator, the general P-spline, to accommodate non-uniform B-splines on unevenly spaced knots. It is a complement to Eilers and Marx's standard P-spline tailored for uniform B-splines on equidistant…

We introduce a new concept for generating optimal quadrature rules for splines. Given a target spline space where we aim to generate an optimal quadrature rule, we build an associated source space with known optimal quadrature and transfer…

The paradigm of differentiable programming has significantly enhanced the scope of machine learning via the judicious use of gradient-based optimization. However, standard differentiable programming methods (such as autodiff) typically…

Subdivision surfaces provide an elegant isogeometric analysis framework for geometric design and analysis of partial differential equations defined on surfaces. They are already a standard in high-end computer animation and graphics and are…

Due to properties such as interpolation, smoothness, and spline connections, Hermite subdivision schemes employ fast iterative algorithms for geometrically modeling curves/surfaces in CAGD and for building Hermite wavelets in numerical…

In this paper, we investigate fractional B splines and their connections with Fourier analysis, and establish connections with generalized Stirling-type numbers and distribution theory. Employing a generating function approach inspired by…

We propose to apply ``worldline numerics'' to a numerical calculation of quark determinants. The Gross-Neveu model with a U(1) chiral symmetry is considered as a first test. The worldline approach allows for an analytic renormalisation, and…

In this article, we consider some generalizations of polynomial and exponential B-splines. Firstly, the extension from integral to complex orders is reviewed and presented. The second generalization involves the construction of uncountable…

Trigonometric and hyperbolic B-splines can be computed via recurrence relations analogous to the classical polynomial B-splines. However, in their original formulation, these two types of B-splines do not form a partition of unity and…

This paper begins by reviewing numerous theoretical advancements in the field of multivariate splines, primarily contributed by Professor Larry L. Schumaker. These foundational results have paved the way for a wide range of applications and…

This paper develops new combinatorial approaches to analyze and compute special set partitions, called complementary set partitions, which are fundamental in the study of generalized cumulants. Moving away from traditional graph-based and…

Numerous applications require algorithms that can align partially overlapping point sets while maintaining invariance to geometric transformations (e.g., similarity, affine, rigid). This paper introduces a novel global optimization method…

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…
