Abstract
Hermite subdivision schemes have been studied by Merrien, Dyn, and Levin and they appear to be very different from subdivision schemes analyzed before since the rules depend on the subdivision level. As suggested by Dyn and Levin, it is possible to transform the initial scheme into a uniform stationary vector subdivision scheme which can be handled more easily.With this transformation, the study of convergence of Hermite subdivision schemes is reduced to that of vector stationary subdivision schemes. We propose a first criterion for C0-convergence for a large class of vector subdivision schemes. This gives a criterion for C1-convergence of Hermite subdivision schemes. It can be noticed that these schemes do not have to be interpolatory. We conclude by investigating spectral properties of Hermite schemes and other necessary/sufficient conditions of convergence.
