Spherical Indicatrices of a Bertrand Curve in Three Lie Groups

On Helices and Bertrand Curves in Euclidean 3-Space

In this article, we investigate Bertrand curves corresponding to the spherical images of the tangent, binormal, principal normal and Darboux indicatrices of a space curve in Euclidean 3-space. As a result, in case of a space curve is a general helix, we show that the curves corresponding to the spherical images of its the tangent indicatrix and binormal indicatrix are both Bertrand curves and circular helices. Similarly, in case of a space curve is a slant helix, we demonstrate that the curve corresponding to the spherical image of its the principal normal indicatrix is both a Bertrand curve a…

On The Special Curves In Minkowski 4 Spacetime

In [1], we gave a method for constructing Bertrand curves from the spherical curves in 3 dimensional Minkowski space. In this work, we construct the Bertrand curves corresponding to a spacelike geodesic and a null helix in Minkowski 4 spacetime.

Notes on W-direction curves in Euclidean 3-space

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…

Characterization of Spherical and Plane Curves Using Rotation Minimizing Frames

In this work, we study plane and spherical curves in Euclidean and Lorentz-Minkowski 3-spaces by employing rotation minimizing (RM) frames. By conveniently writing the curvature and torsion for a curve on a sphere, we show how to find the angle between the principal normal and an RM vector field for spherical curves. Later, we characterize plane and spherical curves as curves whose position vector lies, up to a translation, on a moving plane spanned by their unit tangent and an RM vector field. Finally, as an application, we characterize Bertrand curves and slant helices as curves whose so-cal…

Natural and Conjugate Mates of Frenet Curves in Three-Dimensional Lie Group

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…
