  abstract =     "Multiresolution analysis and wavelets provide useful
                 and efficient tools for representing functions at
                 multiple levels of detail. Wavelet representations have
                 been used in a broad range of applications, including
                 image compression, physical simulation, and numerical
                 analysis. In this article, we present a new class of
                 wavelets, based on subdivision surfaces, that radically
                 extends the class of representable functions. Whereas
                 previous two-dimensional methods were restricted to
                 functions defined on ${\bf R}^2$, the subdivision
                 wavelets developed here may be applied to functions
                 defined on compact surfaces of arbitrary topological
                 type. We envision many applications of this work,
                 including continuous level-of-detail control for
                 graphics rendering, compression of geometric models,
                 and acceleration of global illumination algorithms.
                 Level-of-detail control for spherical domains is
                 illustrated using two examples: shape approximation of
                 a polyhedral model, and color approximation of global
                 terrain data.",
