A new family of curves in space

Differential Geometry 2021-12-28 v1

Abstract

This article defines a new family of curves in space, whose graphs generate shapes similar to whirls. An intrinsic equation is found, in terms of curvature and torsion, which gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of this family. Its position vector is found, with arc length parameter and finally a way of generating a great variety of examples is shown; in particular an application to rectifying curves is given.
