Using the Walsh coincidence theorem, we show in this paper that the shape of the control polygon of a Bézier curve is closely related to the location of the complex roots of the corresponding polynomial. This explains why a convex polynomial over an interval does not necessarily produce a convex con

In this paper, a new basis, to be called C-Bézier basis, is constructed for the space Γ n = span{1, t, t 2 , . . . , t n-2 , sin t, cos t} by an integral approach. Based on this basis, we define C-Bézier curves. We then show that such basis and curves share the same properties as the Bernstein basis
A new formulation for the representation and designing of curves and surfaces is presented. It is a novel generalization of Bézier curves and surfaces. Firstly, a class of polynomial basis functions with n adjustable shape parameters is present. It is a natural extension to classical Bernstein basis
this paper, the relation between difference algorithms and the representation of parametric curves is studied in detail. It is shown that stationary difference algorithms could generate a class of curves, the so-called D-curves, that are suitable in freeform curve and surface modelling and design. T
