Characterization of covergent subdivision schemes

  • Published:
Approximation Theory and its Applications

Abstract

Subdivision schemes provide important techniques for the fast generation of curves and surfaces. A recusive refinement of a given control polygon will lead in the limit to a desired visually smooth object. These methods play also an important role in wavelet analysis. In this paper, we use a rather simple way to characterize the convergence of subdivision schemes for multivariate cases. The results will be used to investigate the regularity of the solutions for dilation equations.
