A remark on $B\left( {P,\alpha } \right)$-refinability

A Remark on a Remark by Macaulay or Enhancing Lazard Structural Theorem

SUBDIVISION and REFINABILITY workshop

Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) surfaces can be non-uniform and defined for any degree, but existing subdivision surfaces are either uniform or of fixed degree. The resulting incompatibility forms a barrier to the adoption of subdivision for ComputerAided Design. In this talk I will discuss our work towards a superset of NURBS which can handle irregularities in the control mesh. We call t...

Remark on a Reply

1.1 In their original PNAS article Macy and Sato (2002) make it clear that their main point concerns social mobility (see, for instance, the abstract and the last section). Their central claim is the non-monotonic effect of mobility: with moderate mobility, they maintain, trust can be established; with too much mobility, trust and trustworthiness are undermined — and therefore their "warning fl...

A remark on Remainders of homogeneous spaces in some compactifications

‎We prove that a remainder $Y$ of a non-locally compact‎ ‎rectifiable space $X$ is locally a $p$-space if and only if‎ ‎either $X$ is a Lindel"{o}f $p$-space or $X$ is $sigma$-compact‎, ‎which improves two results by Arhangel'skii‎. ‎We also show that if a non-locally compact‎ ‎rectifiable space $X$ that is locally paracompact has a remainder $Y$ which has locally a $G_{delta}$-diagonal‎, ‎then...

A remark on the means of the number of divisors

‎We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the sequence with general term $frac{A_n}{G_n}$‎, ‎where $A_n$ and $G_n$ are the arithmetic and geometric means of the numbers $d(1),d(2),dots,d(n)$‎, ‎with $d(n)$ denoting the number of positive divisors of $n$‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we obtain some explicit bounds concerning $G_n$ and $frac{A_n}{G_n}$.
