Interpolatory and variation-diminishing properties of generalized B-splines
SynopsisWe consider classes of functions satisfying certain simple criteria of sign and smoothness and a decomposition property. It is known that these properties are possessed by Chebysheffian B-splines and it is shown here that they are also possessed by certain trigonometric B-splines. For such a class of functions, we derive a variation-diminishing

A generalization of the variation diminishing property
Several generalizations of the ordinary variation diminishing property are derived in the sense that, given an \(m \times n\) totally positive matrix \(T\) and an \(n \times r\) matrix \(A\) satisfying some additional conditions, then the number of changes of sign in the consecutive \(r \times r\) minors of \(TA\) is bounded by the number of changes of

A refinement of the variation diminishing property of Bézier curves
For a given polynomial F(t)[email protected]?"i"="0^np"iB"i^n(t), expressed in the Bernstein basis over an interval [a,b], we prove that the number of real roots of F(t) in [a,b], counting multiplicities, does not exceed the sum of the number of real roots in [a,b] of the polynomial G(t)[email protected]?"i"="k^lp"iB"i"-"k^l^-^k(t) (counting ...

On the Variation-Diminishing Property
This paper considers a new approach in proving the so-called strong variation-diminishing property for positive linear operators. Further it presents applications for the Durrmeyer operators with Jacobi weights \(t^\alpha (1-t)^\beta\), \(\alpha, \beta>-1\) and also for the family of operators \(P_n\) introduced by the reviewer (\textit{D. H.

Convexity and variation diminishing property of multidimensional Bernstein polynomials
A necessary and sufficient condition for the convexity of the Bezier surface over the k-dimensional simplex is presented. We also consider a multidimensional version of the variation diminishing property of the Bernstein polynomials.

Convexity and Variation Diminishing Property of Bernstein Polynomials over Triangles
Let Bn(f;P) denote the Bernstein polynomials over triangle T and \({\hat f_n}\) denote the Bezier net associated with Bn(f;P). A certain type of variations of \({\hat f_n}\) is introduced by GOODMAN quite recently. In the present paper the corresponding variation of Bn(f;P) is defined by integration of the absolute value of the Laplacian of BP(f;P ...

Is there a geometric variation diminishing property for B-spline or Bézier surfaces?
The authors present a list of interesting examples which show that there is probably no simple geometric characterization of the variation diminishing property of B-spline or Bézier-surfaces -- in direct contrast to the case of the corresponding curves.

Stepsize Restrictions for the Total-Variation-Diminishing Property in General Runge--Kutta Methods
The numerical solution of the Cauchy problem for a partial differential equation of the type \[ {\partial \over \partial t} u(x,t) + {\partial \over \partial x} f(u(x,t)) =0, \quad t \geq 0\;\;-\infty < x < \infty \] is investigated. Using the method of lines the numerical problem leads to solving a system of ordinary differential equations of the form

Further variation diminishing properties of Bernstein polynomials on triangles
The author gives a new definition of the `variation' of a surface which generalizes those considered previously. See \textit{G. Chang} and \textit{J. Hoschek}, Multivariate Approximation Theory III, Proc. Conf. Oberwolfach/Ger. 1985, ISNM 75, 61-70 (1985; Zbl 0563.41008). It is shown that the variation of a Bernstein polynomial on a triangle is bounded
