In this study, some characterizations of Euler spirals in E_1^{3} have been presented by using their main property that their curvatures are linear. Moreover, discussing some properties of Bertrand curves and helices, the relationship…
A twisted curve in Euclidean 3-space E^3 can be considered as a curve whose position vector can be written as linear combination of its Frenet vectors. In the present study we study the twisted curves of constant ratio in E^3 and…
We generalize the Fresnel integrals and introduce a class of planar spirals F_n, which contains the Cornu spiral as the case F_2. Their Darboux parametric deformations are also investigated. The F_3 spiral and its Darboux deformed…
In this study, we define the generalized normal ruled surface of a curve in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$. We study the geometry of such surfaces by calculating the Gaussian and mean curvatures to determine when the surface is flat or minimal…
In this paper, we give definitions and characterizations of normal and spherical curves in the dual space. We show that normal curves are also spherical curves in D^3.
Euler used intrinsic equations expressing the radius of curvature as a function of the angle of inclination to find curves similar to their evolutes. We interpret the evolute of a plane curve optically, as the caustic (envelope) of light…
The well known formulas express the curvature and the torsion of a curve in $R^3$ in terms of euclidean invariants of its derivatives. We obtain expressions of this kind for all curvatures of curves in $R^n$. It follows that a curve in…

In the present study we consider the generalized rotational surfaces in Euclidean spaces. Firstly, we consider generalized spherical curves in Euclidean $(n+1)-$space $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}$. Further, we introduce some kind of generalized…
We consider the curves whose all normal planes are at the same distance from a fixed point and obtain some characterizations of them in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space.
We introduce a new class of surfaces in Euclidean $3$-space, called surfaces of osculating circles, using the concept of osculating circle of a regular curve. These surfaces contain a uniparametric family of planar lines of curvature. In…
We study integrable Euler equations on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}(3,\mathbb{R})$ by interpreting them as evolutions on the space of hexagons inscribed in a real cubic curve.
We consider skew ruled surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space and some geometrically distinguished families of curves on them whose normal curvature has a concrete form. The aim of this paper is to find and classify all ruled…
We proved the existence of rational curves in every linear system on a general K3 surface and that all rational curves in the hyperplane class are nodal on a general K3 surface of small genus.
We find a geometrical method of analysing the singularities of a plane nodal curve. The main results will be used in a forthcoming paper on geometric Plucker formulas for such curves. Plane nodal curves, that is plane curves having at most…
In this paper we discuss the variety of planar spiral segments and their applications in objects in both the real and artificial world. The discussed curves with monotonic curvature function are well-known in geometric modelling and…
The theory of classical types of curves in normed planes is not strongly developed. In particular, the knowledge on existing concepts of curvatures of planar curves is widespread and not systematized in the literature. Giving a…
We extend the old definition of the Apollonius circle in such a way that it results in the same curve in Euclidean geometry but will be more convenient in hyperbolic and spherical geometries. We show that there exists an Apollonius circle…
In this paper, we apply classical energy principles to Euler elasticae, i.e., closed C^2 curves in the plane supplied with the Euler functional U (the integral of the square of the curvature along the curve). We study the critical points of…
Principal curves are natural generalizations of principal lines arising as first principal components in the Principal Component Analysis. They can be characterized from a stochastic point of view as so-called self-consistent curves based…
