Abstract
We introduce control curves for trigonometric splines and show that they have properties similar to those for classical polynomial splines. In particular, we discuss knot insertion algorithms, and show that as more and more knots are inserted into a trigonometric spline, the associated control curves converge to the spline. In addition, we establish a convex-hull property and a variation-diminishing result.
