Mesh subdivision is a fundamental operation for converting coarse, editable meshes into high-resolution surfaces, with broad applications in digital asset creation. Classical rule-based schemes rely on fixed local refinement rules and often produce over-smoothed surfaces. Recent neural subdivision methods improve detail synthesis, but remain constrained by local modeling and exhibit limited generalizability. We present SubdivAR, a neural mesh subdivision framework based on our proposed Mesh Autoregressive Representation (MAR). MAR arranges meshes at different subdivision levels into an ordered scale sequence, reformulating subdivision as autoregressive next-scale prediction. To support this formulation, we introduce a Hybrid Topology-Aware Transformer that combines global semantic attention with topology-constrained local feature aggregation. SubdivAR adopts a next-scale coordinate prediction paradigm, regressing vertex offsets at each refinement stage to preserve subdivision topology while recovering fine-grained geometric details. To enable reliable learning, we construct FII-40K, a curated dataset of nearly 40,000 high-quality meshes with multi-level subdivision supervision. Experiments show that SubdivAR outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, reducing Hausdorff Distance and Chamfer Distance by 18.8% and 14.2%, respectively, and demonstrates strong robustness on complex open-surface geometries.
