In this paper, we define k-type spacelike slant helices lying on a lightlike surface in Minkowski space E 3 1 according to their Darboux frame for k ∈ {0, 1, 2}. We obtain the necessary and the sufficient conditions for spacelike curves with non-null and null principal normal lying on lightlike surface to be the k-type spacelike slant helices in terms of their geodesic curvature, normal curvature and geodesic torsion. Additionally, we determine their axes and show that the Darboux frame of a spacelike curve lying on a lightlike surface coincides with its Bishop frame if and only if it has zero geodesic torsion. Finally, we give some examples.
In this paper, we introduce T-slant, N-slant and B-slant helices in the
pseudo-Galilean space G13 and define an angle between the spacelike and the
timelike isotropic vector lying in the pseudo-Euclidean plane x = 0. In
particular, we obtain the explicit parameter equations of the T-slant
helices and prove that there are no N-slant and B-slant helices in G13. We
also prove that there are no Darboux helices in the same space.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
