Getting Rid of Links in Hierarchical Radiosity
Hierarchical radiosity with clustering has positioned itself as one of the most efficient algorithms for computing global illumination in non-trivial environments. However, using...

Convergent discrete Laplace-Beltrami operators over surfaces
The convergence problem of the Laplace-Beltrami operators plays an essential role in the convergence analysis of the numerical simulations of some important geometric partial diff...

Weights of Exact Threshold Functions
We consider Boolean exact threshold functions defined by linear equations, and in general degree d polynomials. We give upper and lower bounds on the maximum magnitude (absolute va...

The Fast Generalized Gauss Transform
The fast Gauss transform allows for the calculation of the sum of N Gaussians at M points in O(N + M) time. Here, we extend the algorithm to a wider class of kernels, motivated by ...
