A hyperbolic framed curve is a smooth curve with a moving frame in hyperbolic 3-space. It may have singularities. By using this moving frame, we can investigate the differential geometry properties of curves, even at singular points. In…

The purpose of this article is to give an explicit formula for all curves of constant torsion $\tau$ in the unit two-sphere $S^2(1)$. These curves and their basic properties have been known since the 1890's, and some of these properties are…
We develop a characterization for the existence of symmetries of canal surfaces defined by a rational spine curve and rational radius function. In turn, this characterization inspires an algorithm for computing the symmetries of such canal…

A canal surface is the envelope of a moving sphere with varying radius, defined by the trajectory C(t) (spine curve) of its center and a radius function r(t). In this paper, we investigate when parameter curves of the canal surface are also…
We classify two dimensional neighborhoods of an elliptic curve C with torsion normal bundle, up to formal equivalence. The proof makes use of the existence of a pair (indeed a pencil) of formal foliations having C as a common leaf, and the…
We investigate space curves with large cohomology. To this end we introduce curves of subextremal type. This class includes all subextremal curves. Based on geometric and numerical characterizations of curves of subextremal type, we show…

In the theory of differential geometry curves, a curve is said to be of constant-ratio if the ratio of the length of the tangential and normal components of its position vector function is constant. In this paper, we study and characterize…
