Subdivision and spline spaces
Abstract
A standard construction in approximation theory is mesh refinement. For a simplicial or polyhedral mesh D in Rk, we study the subdivision D' obtained by subdividing a maximal cell of D. We give sufficient conditions for the module of splines on D' to split as the direct sum of splines on D and splines on the subdivided cell. As a consequence, we obtain dimension formulas and explicit bases for several commonly used subdivisions and their multivariate generalizations.
