Abstract

Laplace-Beltrami operator and its discretization play a central role in the fields of image processing, computer graphics, computer aided geometric design and so on. In this paper, a discrete scheme for Laplace-Beltrami operator over quadrilateral meshes is constructed based on a bilinear interpolation of the quadrilateral. Convergence results for the proposed discrete scheme are established under some conditions. Numerical results which justify the theoretical analysis are also given.
