Abstract
In this paper we give a new definition of minimally and quasi-minimally supported $\mathcal{C}^{2}$ quartic bivariate B-splines associated with the four-directional mesh of the plane, introduced in [7,19], which is convenient to show that theses B-splines satisfy the refinement equation and we determine the associated matrix mask, we prove that the family of these B-splines is stable and the associated subdivision scheme converges. These results can be extended to various cases in the spline space of class $\mathcal{C}^{3k+2}$ and degree 4k+4, but in these cases the supports of the masks are larger.


Résumé
Dans cet article nous donnons une nouvelle définition des B-splines quartiques de classe $\mathcal{C}^{2}$ à support minimal et quasi-minimal sur le réseau quadridirectionnel du plan, introduites dans [7,19]. Nous utilisons cette définition pour montrer que ces B-splines vérifient une équation de raffinement et déterminer les matrices du filtre associé. Nous montrons que la famille de ces B-splines est stable et que le schéma de subdivision associé converge. Ces résultats peuvent être généralisés aux espaces de fonctions splines de classe $\mathcal{C}^{3k+2}$ et de degré 4k+4, mais dans ce cas les supports des filtres associés deviennent plus grands.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
