The Legendre curve in the unit tangent bundle over Euclidean plane is a plane curve with a moving frame. We have the (Legendre) curvature of the Legendre curve, and the existence and uniqueness theorems for the curvature are valid. In this…

The notion of rectifying curve in the Euclidean space is introduced by Chen as a curve whose position vector always lies in its rectifying plane spanned by the tangent and the binormal vector field t and n_2 of the curve. In this study, we…

The space $\mathbf{H}^{4,2}$ of vectors of norm -1 in $\mathbb{R}^{4,3}$ has a natural pseudo-Riemannian metric and a compatible almost complex structure. The group of automorphisms of both of these structures is the split real form $G_2'$.…

We study surfaces with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field in Euclidean or Minkowski 4-space. On any such surface we introduce special isothermal parameters (canonical parameters) and describe these surfaces in terms of three…
