A regular quincunx subdivision step replaces a square lattice by the union of its old vertices and face centres. In lattice indices one may useThus two steps give ordinary binary refinement. If is the one-step subdivision mask symbol, the two-step symbol is . The two lattice parity classes separately determine the old-vertex and face-vertex stencils; their coefficient sums must each be one to reproduce constants.
