Subdivision algorithms contain two major
components: \emph{\tr} and \emph{\gm}.
The \tr\ reparameterizes the source mesh into the target
mesh. The \gm\ transforms a submesh on the source mesh
to a vertex on the refined mesh. The source submesh with
the normalized weighting is called
\emph{stencil}. A proper combination of a \tr\ and a set of
rules of \gm\ define a valid subdivision scheme.
Figure \ref{fig:RefSchemes} shows the local configuration
of four major refinements
employed in subdivision algorithms, which include Catmull-Clark
subdivision (PQQ) \cite{cc}, Loop subdivision (PTQ) \cite{loop},
Doo-Sabin subdivision (DQQ) \cite{ds} and $\sqrt{3}$ subdivision
\cite{sqrt3}. Subdivisions, such as Quad-Triangle subdivision (PQQ and
PTQ) \cite{qts,l-pg-03}, may employ a hybrid refinement consisting
of two different refinements.

The \gm\ applies a \emph{mask} on the stencil and
generate the corresponding vertex on the refined mesh.
The mask usually specifies an affine combination of the
stencil. Figure \ref{fig:RefMap} demonstrates the examples of the
correspondence between a stencil and its vertex. Subdivisions
usually have distinct masks associated with different stencils
(Figure \ref{fig:RefMap} (a-c)).

subdivision has three stencils: facet-stencil (a),
edge-stencil (b) and vertex-stencil (c).
Doo-Sabin subdivision has only corner-stencil (d).}
