Piecewise Polynomials on Polyhedral Complexes
For a d-dimensional polyhedral complex P , the dimension of the space of piecewise polynomial functions (splines) on P of smoothness r and degree k is given, for k sufficiently large, by a polynomial f(P, r, k) of degree d. When d = 2 and P is simplicial, in [1] Alfeld and Schumaker give a formula for all three coefficients of f . However, in the polyhedral case, no formula is known. Using loca...
متن کاملOn the Dimension of Multivariate Piecewise Polynomials
Lower bounds are given on the dimension of piecewise polynomial C 1 and C 2 functions de ned on a tessellation of a polyhedral domain into Tetrahedra. The analysis technique consists of embedding the space of interest into a larger space with a simpler structure, and then making appropriate adjustments. In the bivariate case, this approach reproduces the well-known lower bounds derived by Schum...
متن کاملCocycles on Tropical Varieties via Piecewise Polynomials
We use piecewise polynomials to define tropical cocycles generalising the well-known notion of Cartier divisors to higher codimensions. We also introduce an intersection product of cocycles with tropical cycles and prove that this gives rise to a Poincaré duality in some cases.
متن کاملOn 3-monotone approximation by piecewise polynomials
Abstract. We consider 3-monotone approximation by piecewise polynomials with prescribed knots. A general theorem is proved, which reduces the problem of 3-monotone uniform approximation of a 3-monotone function, to convex local L1 approximation of the derivative of the function. As the corollary we obtain Jackson-type estimates on the degree of 3-monotone approximation by piecewise polynomials ...
متن کاملMultivariate piecewise polynomials
This article was supposed to be on `multivariate splines'. An informal survey, taken recently by asking various people in Approximation Theory what they consider to be a `multivariate spline', resulted in the answer that a multivariate spline is a possibly smooth, piecewise polynomial function of several arguments. In particular, the potentially very useful thin-plate spline was thought to belo...
