We investigate the propagation of errors through geometric transformations, such as re°ections, rotations, similarity transformations, and projections, and also the scalar product of vectors. This means computing tolerance zones of points which undergo such transformations, if these points and the transformations themselves are given by toleranced input data.

Strain fields provide a method of deformation measurement based on physics. Using these as a tool, we can analyze deformation of objects in a measurable way. We have developed a new morphing technique based on strain field interpolation. Shape shaking and squeezing, which often happen when using linear interpolation for morphing, do not arise in our approach. We have also developed a new method to create isomorphic meshes from corresponding objects in two images. Meshes generated by this method have much fewer triangles than other methods, which greatly decreases calculation loads in the morphing process.

We present a generalization of the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau inequality to Deligne-Mumford surfaces of general type.

We use Seidel representation for symplectic orbifolds to compute the quantum cohomology ring of a compact symplectic toric orbifold (X , ω).

We give a new, simple algorithm for simultaneous degree elevation and knot insertion for B-spline curves. The method is based on the simple approach of computing derivatives using the control points, resampling the knot vector, and then computing the new control points from the derivatives. We compare our approach with previous algorithms and illustrate it with examples.
