Review text

Cubic parametric B-splines are positive, compactly supported functions, introduced in the context of shape-preserving approximation of curves by \textit{P. Lamberti} and \textit{C. Manni} [Adv. Comput. Math. 20, No. 1--3, 105--127 (2004; Zbl 1054.41003)]. These functions are special parametric curves having piecewise cubic components. Their basic property is that the lengths of tangent vectors at the extremes of each curve segment act as tension parameter. In this paper, the authors present refinement properties of cubic parametric B-splines. The refiment equations determine a nonstationary, nonuniform, and irregular subdivision scheme.
