A nonlinear generalized subdivision scheme of arbitrary degree with a tension parameter

[摘要] In this paper, a nonlinear generalized subdivision scheme of arbitrary degree with a tension parameter is presented, which refines 2D point-normal pairs. The construction of the scheme is built upon the stationary linear generalized subdivision scheme of arbitrary degree with a tension parameter, by replacing the weighted binary arithmetic average in the linear scheme with the circle average. For such a nonlinear scheme, we investigate its smoothness and get that it can reach$C^{1}$ with suitable choices of the tension parameter when degree$m\geq 3$ . Besides, the nonlinear scheme can reconstruct the circle and the selection of parameters and initial normal vectors can effectively control the shape of the limit curves.
