In this paper, the properties of a new family of nonlinear dyadic subdivision schemes are presented and studied depending on the conditions imposed to the mean used to rewrite the linear scheme upon which the new scheme is based. The convergence, stability, and order of approximation of the schemes of the family are analyzed in general. Also, the elimination of the Gibbs oscillations close to discontinuities is proved in particular cases. It is proved that these schemes converge towards limit functions that are Holder continuous with exponent larger than 1. The results are illustrated with several examples.
