On convergent interpolatory subdivision schemes in Riemannian geometry (Q485354)

Here the author shows the convergence (for all input data) of refinement rules in Riemannian manifolds which are analogous to the linear four-point scheme and similar univariate interpolatory schemes, and which are generalized to the Riemannian setting by the so-called log/exp analogy. For this purpose, a lemma on the Hölder regularity of limits of contractive refinement schemes in metric spaces is used. In combination with earlier results on the smoothness of limits, the question of existence of interpolatory refinement rules intrinsic to Riemannian geometry which have \(C^r\) limits for all input data for \(r\leq 3\) is settled. Also, the well-definedness of the reconstruction procedure of ``interpolatory'' multiscale transforms intrinsic to Riemannian geometry is established.
