Semi-regular 4–8 meshes are refinable triangulated quadrangulations. They provide a powerful hierarchical structure for multiresolution applications. In this paper, we show how to decompose the DooSabin and Catmull-Clark subdivision schemes using 4–8 refinement. The proposed technique makes it possible to use these classical subdivision surfaces with semi-regular 4–8 meshes. Additional

Unlike the situation in the classical theory of convex polytopes, there is a wealth of semi-regular abstract polytopes, including interesting examples exhibiting some unexpected phenomena. We prove that even an equifacetted semi-regular abstract polytope can have an arbitrary large number of flag orbits or face orbits under its combinatorial automorphism group.

In this paper examples are given to show that s-regular and s-normal are independent; that s-normal, and s-regular are not semi topological properties; and that (S(X),E(X)) need not be I even if (X,T) is compact, s-normal, s-regular, semi-T2, and T0. Also, it is shown that for each space (X,T), (S(X) ,E(X)), (S(XO) ,E(Xo)), and (S(Xs0) ,E(Xs0)) are homeomorphic, where (X0, Q(X0)) is the T0-iden...

INTRODUCTION Recent studies suggest that 23% of adult Newfoundlanders do not have a regular doctor. Using data from the 1995 Newfoundland Panel on Health and Medical Care study, we examined the urban, semi-urban and rural differences in the characteristics of adult (age 20 and over) Newfoundlanders who did and did not have a regular doctor. METHODS We used chi2 tests and logistic regression t...
