About this paper
Çetin Dişibüyük
Çetin Dişibüyük of Dokuz Eylül University developed quantum trigonometric Bézier curves, a new family of curves that integrates q-calculus with trigonometric function spaces to provide enhanced shape control. The rational variant of these curves achieves a complete set of desired shape-preserving properties, including the convex hull and affine invariance.
Key insights
- The total positivity of the newly defined basis functions is a fundamental property that guarantees desirable shape-preserving characteristics.
- Non-rational quantum trigonometric Bézier curves, while variation diminishing and interpolating endpoints, do not possess the convex hull property or affine invariance because their basis functions do not form a partition of unity.
- By introducing positive weights, the rational basis functions become normalized totally positive, allowing the rational curves to satisfy all key shape-preserving properties.
