Curves with constant curvature ratios

Differential Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Curves in Rn{\mathbb R}^n for which the ratios between two consecutive curvatures are constant are characterized by the fact that their tangent indicatrix is a geodesic in a flat torus. For n=3,4n= 3,4, spherical curves of this kind are also studied and compared with intrinsic helices in the sphere.
