Abstract

Non‐uniform binary linear subdivision schemes, with finite masks, over uniform grids, are studied. A Laurent polynomial representation is suggested and the basic operations required for smoothness analysis are presented. As an example it is shown that the interpolatory 4‐point scheme is C 1 with an almost arbitrary non‐uniform choice of the free parameter.
