  • Abstract
    We exhibit the essentially unique projective linear (rational linear) reparameterization for constructing Cs surfaces of genus g>0. Conversely, for quadrilaterals and isolated vertices of valence 8, we show constructively for s=1,2 that this map yields a projective linear spline space for surfaces of genus greater or equal to 1. This establishes the reparametrization to be the simplest possible transition map.
