Bézier curves on groups (Q1262070): Difference between revisions

The classical Bézier spline construction is extended from \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\) to the general linear group \(GL_ n:=\{A| \quad A=n\times n\quad matrix,\quad \det A\neq 0\}.\) Two, three and four point Bézier constructions in \(GL_ n\) are considered. Using the four point interpolation formula the author constructs Bézier splines which smoothly interpolate a given set of points in \(GL_ n\).
