In this paper we consider the equiform motion of a helix in Euclidean space $\mathbf{E}^7$. We study and analyze the corresponding kinematic three dimensional surface under the hypothesis that its scalar curvature $\mathbf{K}$ is constant. Under this assumption, we prove that if the scalar curvature $\mathbf{K}$ is constant, then $\mathbf{K}$ must equal zero.
In this paper, we establish equiform differential geometry of space and timelike curves in 4-dimensional Minkowski space. We obtain some conditions for these curves. Also, general helices with respect to their equiform curvatures are characterized.
We determine all helix surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector field, which are not minimal or pseudo-umbilical, in spaces of type $M^n(c)\times\mathbb{R}$, where $M^n(c)$ is a simply-connected $n$-dimensional manifold with constant sectional curvature $c$.
In this paper, we define f-eikonal helix curves and f-eikonal V_{n}-slant helix curves in a n-dimensional Riemannian manifold. Also, we give the definition of harmonic curvature functions related to f-eikonal helix curves and f-eikonal V_{n}-slant helix curves in a n-dimensional Riemannian manifold. Moreover, we give characterizations for f-eikonal helix curves and f-eikonal V_{n}-slant helix curves by making use of the harmonic curvature functions.
In this paper, we give the characterizations of spacelike B2-slant helix by means of curvatures of the spacelike curve in Minkowski 4-space. Furthermore, we give the integral characterization of the spacelike B2-slant helix.
In classical curve theory, the geometry of a curve in three dimensions is essentially characterized by their invariants, curvature and torsion. When they are given, the problem of finding a corresponding curve is known as 'solving natural equations'. Explicit solutions are known only for a handful of curve classes, including notably the plane curves and general helices. This paper shows constructively how to solve the natural equations explicitly for an infinite series of curve classes. For every Frenet curve, a family of successor curves can be constructed which have the tangent of the origin…
In this paper, we define the notion of eikonal helix and eikonal slant helix for null curves in the 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifold M 1 4 and give a characterization for the null curve to be the null eikonal helix. Moreover, we indicate an important relation between the null eikonal helix and null eikonal slant helix and find the axis of the null eikonal helix. We obtain some relationships between the curvatures of these curves.
In this study, we give definitions and characterizations of eikonal slant helix curves, eikonal Darboux helices and non-normed eikonal Darboux helices in three dimensional Riemannian manifold 3 M . We show that every eikonal slant helix is also an eikonal Darboux helix. Furthermore, we obtain that if the curve a is a non-normed eikonal Darboux helix, then a is an eikonal slant helix if and only if k 2 +t 2 = constant, where k and t are curvature and torsion of a, respectively.
In this paper, we give a definition of harmonic curvature functions in terms of V_{n} and define a new kind of slant helix which is called V_{n}-slant helix in n-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifold. Also, we give important characterizations about the helix.
We consider the Anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}^3_1$ equipped with Berger-like metrics, that deform the standard metric of $\mathbb{H}^3_1$ in the direction of the hyperbolic Hopf vector field. Helix surfaces are the ones forming a constant angle with such vector field. After proving that these surfaces have (any) constant Gaussian curvature, we achieve their explicit local description in terms of a one-parameter family of isometries of the space and some suitable curves. These curves turn out to be general helices, which meet at a constant angle the fibers of the hyperbolic Hopf fibration.
In this paper, we are investigating that under which conditions of the geodesic curvature of unit speed curve $γ$ that lies on $S_1^2$ or $H_0^2$, the curve $α$ which is obtained by using $γ$, is a spherical helix or slant helix in Minkowski space.
In this study, we give definitions and characterizations of eikonal slant helices, eikonal Darboux helices and non-normed eikonal Darboux helices in 3-dimensional pseudo- Riemannian manifold M . We show that every eikonal slant helix is also an eikonal Darboux helix for timelike and spacelike curves. Furthermore, we obtain that if the non-null curve a is a non-normed eikonal Darboux helix, then a is an eikonal slant helix if and only if 2 2 e 3k +e1t = constant, where k and t are curvature and torsion of a, respectively. Finally, we define null-eikonal helices, slant helices and Darboux helice…
In this paper, we are investigating that under which conditions of the geodesic curvature of unit speed curve gamma that lies on the unit sphere, the curve c which is obtained by using gamma, is a spherical helix or slant helix.
In n-dimensional Euclidean space E^n, harmonic curvatures of a non-degenerate curve defined by Özdamar and Hacisalihoğlu [4]. In this paper, We define a new type of curves called LC helix when the angle between tangent of this curve and LC parallel vector field in space form is constant. Furthermore, several characterizations of these curves by using its harmonic curvatures are obtained. Particularly, in the 3-dimensional spaceform we obtain the results [5].
In this study, we introduce the natural mate and conjugate mate of a Frenet curve in a three dimensional Lie group $ \mathbb{G} $ with bi-invariant metric. Also, we give some relationships between a Frenet curve and its natural mate or its conjugate mate in $ \mathbb{G} $. Especially, we obtain some results for the natural mate and the conjugate mate of a Frenet curve in $ \mathbb{G} $ when the Frenet curve is a general helix, a slant helix, a spherical curve, a rectifying curve, a Salkowski (constant curvature and non-constant torsion), anti-Salkowski (non-constant curvature and constant tors…
In this paper, we study the spherical indicatrices of W-direction curves in three dimensional Euclidean space which were defined by using the unit Darboux vector field W of a Frenet curve, in [11]. We obtain the Frenet apparatus of these spherical indicatrix curves and the characterizations of being general helix and slant helix. Moreover we give some properties between the spherical indicatrix curves and their associated curves. Then we investigate two special ruled surface that are normal and binormal surface by using W-direction curves. We give useful results involving the char- acterizatio…
In this study, we investigate the existence theorems for timelike ruled surfaces in Minkowski 3-space. We obtain a general system and give the existence theorems for a timelike ruled surface according to Gaussian curvature, distribution parameter and strictional distance. Moreover, we give some special cases such as the directirx of the surface is a geodesic, an asymptotic line, a line of curvature or a general helix.
In this paper, we give the defination of harmonic curvature function some special curves such as helix, slant curves, Mannheim curves and Bertrand curves. Then, we recall the characterizations of helices [8], slant curves (see [19]) and Mannheim curves (see [12]) in three dimensional Lie groups using their harmonic curvature function. Moreover, we define Bertrand curves in a three dimensional Lie group G with a bi-invariant metric and the main result in this paper is given as (Theorem 3.4): A curve ?α with the Frenet apparatus {T,N,B,κ,τ} in G is a Bertrand curve if and only if λκ+μκH=1 where …
