Polynomial Pythagorean hodograph (PH) curves form a remarkable subclass of polynomial parametric curves; they are distinguished by having a polynomial arc length function and rational offsets (parallel curves). Many related references can be found in the article by Farouki and Neff on C1 Hermite interpolation with PH quintics. We extend the C1 Hermite interpolation scheme by taking additional c...

Though a Hermite subdivision scheme is non-stationary by nature, its non-stationarity can be of two types, making useful the distinction between Inherently Stationary (I.S.) and Inherently Non-Stationary (I.N.S.) Hermite subdivision schemes. This paper focuses on the class of inherently stationary, dual non-interpolatory Hermite subdivision schemes that can be obtained from known Hermite interp...

Computational modeling of tissue-scale cardiac electrophysiology requires numerically converged solutions to avoid spurious artifacts. The steep gradients inherent to cardiac action potential propagation necessitate fine spatial scales and therefore a substantial computational burden. The use of high-order interpolation methods has previously been proposed for these simulations due to their the...

f(xj) = p(xj), j = 1, . . . , n. This is sometimes called Lagrange interpolation to distinguish it from Hermite interpolation, see below. For the basics, see Chapter 7 in Heath. As in Heath, we let Pn be the (function) space of polynomials of degree at most n. We let C([a, b]) denote the set of continuous functions on the interval [a, b]. Similarly, we let C([a, b]) be the n times continuously ...

The connection between convergence of product integration rules and mean convergence of Lagrange interpolation in L, (1 <p < 00) has been thoroughly analysed by Sloan and Smith [37]. Motivated by this connection, we investigate mean convergence of Lagrange interpolation at the zeros of orthogonal polynomials associated with Freud weights on R. Our results apply to the weights exp(-x”/2), m = 2,...

We consider the extension of the method of Gauss-Newton from complex floating-point arithmetic to the field of truncated power series with complex floating-point coefficients. With linearization we formulate a linear system where the coefficient matrix is a series with matrix coefficients, and provide a characterization for when the matrix series is regular based on the algebraic variety of an ...

The Fourier transforms of B-splines with multiple integer knots are shown to satisfy a simple recursion relation. This recursion formula is applied to derive a generalized two–scale relation for B-splines with multiple knots. Furthermore, the structure of the corresponding autocorrelation symbol is investigated. In particular, it can be observed that the solvability of the cardinal Hermite spli...

The classical Hermite interpolation technique approximates a given differentiable function defined in an open subset of R with a polynomial of a given degree which takes at an assigned set points p1, . . . , pn, usually assumed to be sufficiently general, the same values as the function and of its derivatives up to orderm1, . . . ,mn respectively. A geometric counterpart of Hermite interpolatio...

We present quasi-linear time systematic encoding algorithms for multiplicity codes. The algorithms have their origins in the fast multivariate interpolation and evaluation algorithms of van der Hoeven and Schost (2013), which we generalise to address certain Hermite-type interpolation and evaluation problems. By providing fast encoding algorithms for multiplicity codes, we remove an obstruction...
