Paul de Faget de Casteljau

Paul de Faget de Casteljau (*1930, Besancon) is a Mathématicien and Physicien French. He made his studies with the National university of Paris. He is known for his discovery of the shapes with poles in 1959 and the Algorithme of Casteljau which makes it possible to represent the curved of Bézier whereas he worked for Citroen. He joined together the technique of the curves of Bézier and the splines in the Floraisons. Its last research relates to the quaternions and the metrical geometry.
