The n_s-step Interpolatory (Quasi)-Stationary Subdivision Schemes and Their Interpolating Refinable Functions
share
Standard interpolatory subdivision schemes and their underlying interpolating refinable functions are of interest in CAGD, numerical PDEs, and approximation theory. Generalizing these notions, we introduce and study n_s-step interpolatory M-subdivision schemes and their interpolating M-refinable functions with n_s∈ℕ∪{∞} and a dilation factor M. We characterize convergence and smoothness of n_s-step interpolatory subdivision schemes and their interpolating M-refinable functions. Inspired by n_s-step interpolatory stationary subdivision schemes, we further introduce the notion of n_s-step interpolatory quasi-stationary subdivision schemes, and then we characterize their convergence and smoothness properties. Examples of convergent n_s-step interpolatory M-subdivision schemes are provided to illustrate our results with dilation factors M=2,3,4. In addition, for the dyadic dilation M=2, using masks with two-ring stencils, we also provide examples of C^2-convergent 2-step or C^3-convergent 3-step interpolatory quasi-stationary subdivision schemes.
