Abstract: A set of control points can determine a Bezier surface and a triangulated surface simultaneously. We prove that the triangulated surface becomes homeomorphic and ambient isotopic to the Bezier surface via subdivision. We also show that the total Gaussian curvature of the triangulated surface converges to the total Gaussian curvature of the Bezier surface.
