Introduction

Bézier curves and surfaces are essential to a wide variety of applications in computer graphics and geometric modeling, and the Bernstein basis functions play a central role in the construction and analysis of these curve and surface schemes. Here we shall adopt the standard notation image, and image, to represent the univariate and bivariate Bernstein ...
