We present a new proof of the characterization theorem for Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves in the Minkowski spaces $\mathbf{R}^{n+1,m}$. For an polynomial curves $\mathbf{s}(t)=(x_1(t),...,\;x_{n+m}(t))$, we also find Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves $\mathbf{r}(t)=(x_0(t),\;x_1(t),...,\;x_{n+m}(t))$. In case m=0, Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves become Pythagorean-hodograph curves in the Euclidean spaces $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ and Theorems in this paper hold for these Pythagorean-hodograph curves.

We solve the geometric Hermite interpolation problem with planar Pythagorean-hodograph cubics. For every Hermite data, we determine the exact number of the geometric Hermite interpolants and represent the interpolants explicitly. We also present a simple criterion for determining whether the interpolants have a loop or not.

The general stereographic projection which maps a point on a sphere with arbitrary radius to a point on a plane stereographically and its inverse projection have the pythagorean-hodograph (PH) preserving property in the sense that they map a PH curve to another PH curve. Upon this fact, for given spatial $C^1$ Hermite data, we construct a spatial PH curve on a sphere that is a $C^1$ Hermite interpolant of the given data as follows: First, we solve $C^1$ Hermite interpolation problem for the stereographically projected planar data of the given data in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with planar PH curves expressed in the complex representation. Second, we construct spherical PH curves which are interpolants for the given data in $\mathbb{R}^3$ using the inverse general stereographic projection.

본 논문에서는 평면 다항식 피타고리안 호도그라프 곡선을 그 근들의 관점에서 특별한 기하학적 재 매개화하는 것에 관하여 연구한다. 피타고라스 호도그라프 곡선들은 그 호도그라프의 근들에 의하여 완전히 결정된다. 피타고라스 호도그라프 곡선들의 근들의 자취는 아주 흥미로운 기하학적 성질들을 만족함을 보인다.

Rational parameterization of curves and surfaces is one of the main topics in computer-aided geometric design because of their computational advantages. Pythagorean hodograph (PH) curves and Minkowski Pythagorean hodograph (MPH) curves have attracted many researcher's interest because they provide for rational representation of their offset curves in Euclidean space and Minkowski space, respectively. In [10], Kim presented the characterization of the PH curves in the Euclidean space and analyzed the relation between the class of PH curves and the class of rational curves. In this paper, we extend the characterization of PH curves in [10] into that of MPH curves in the general Minkowski space and consider some generalized MPH curves satisfying this characterization.

In this paper, we show two ways of the time reparametrization of piecewise Pythagorean-hodograph $C^1$ Hermite interpolants. One is the time reparametrization with no shape change, and the other is that with shape change. We show that the first reparametrization does not depend on the boundary data and that it is uniquely determined by the size of parameter domain, up to the general cases. We empirically show that the second parametrization can cause the change of the shape of interpolant.

In this article, we define Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph (MPH) curves in the Minkowski plane $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$ and obtain $C^1$ Hermite interpolations for MPH quintics in the Minkowski plane $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$. We also have the envelope curves of MPH curves, and make surfaces of revolution with exact rational offsets. In addition, we present an example of $C^1$ Hermite interpolations for MPH rational curves in $\mathbb{R}^{2,1}$ from those in $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$ and a suitable MPH preserving mapping.

We invoke the characterization of Pythagorean-hodograph polynomial curves and prove that it is impossible to parameterize any real curves, other than a straight line, by rational functions of its arc length.

본 논문에서는 R. T. Farouki에 의하여 소개된 평면 곡선들에 대한 복소수화된 표현법을 사용하여 주어진 임의의 평면 다항식 곡선을 복소수 계수를 갖는 한 다항식으로 나타내고 이 식을 대수학의 기본정리에 따라 복소수체 상에서 완전히 인수분해한 다음 그 근들을 관찰하여 주어진 곡선이 평면 다항식 피타고리안 호도그라프(PH) 곡선이 되기 위하 필요충분 조건을 새로운 방법으로 밝히고, 이를 3차원 민코브스키 공간 $R^{2,1}$ 상의 다항식 곡선에 적용, 이 곡선이 PH 곡선이 되기 위한 필요충분을 보다 간결한 형태로 나타내고 이를 통하여 3차원 민코브스키 공간 $R^{2,1}$ 상의 가능한 다항식 PH 곡선들의 유형이 모두 결정된다는 것을 보인다.
