the rational cubic function with three parameters has been extended to rational bi-cubic function to visualize the shape of regular convex surface data. the rational bi-cubic function involves six parameters in each rectangular patch. data dependent constraints are derived on four of these parameters to visualize the shape of convex surface data while other two are free to refine the shape of s...

studying gaussian beam is a method to investigate laser beam propagation and abcd matrix is a fast and simple method to simulate gaussian beam propagation in different mediums. of the abcd matrices studied so far, reflection and refraction matrices at various surfaces have attracted a lot of researches. however in previous work the incident beam and the principle axis of surface are in parallel...

The main motivation here is a question: whether any polyhedron which can be subdivided into convex pieces without adding a vertex, and which has the same vertices as a convex polyhedron, is infinitesimally rigid. We prove that it is indeed the case for two classes of polyhedra: those obtained from a convex polyhedron by “denting” at most two edges at a common vertex, and suspensions with a natu...

We investigate C1 regularity of minimizers to ́ F (∇u)dx in two dimensions for certain classes of non-smooth convex functionals F . In particular our results apply to the surface tensions that appear in recent works on random surfaces and random tilings of Kenyon, Okounkov and others.
