Abstract

Non-self-intersection is both a topological and a geometric property. It is known that non-self-intersecting regular Bezier curves have non-self-intersecting control polygons, after sufficiently many uniform subdivisions. Here a sufficient condition is given within ℝ3 for a non-self-intersecting, regular C 2 cubic Bezier curve to be ambient isotopic to its control polygon formed after sufficiently many subdivisions. The benefit of using the control polygon as an approximant for scientific visualization is presented in this paper.
