In this paper, we elaborate the theory of exceptional hereditary curves over arbitrary fields. In particular, we study the category of equivariant coherent sheaves on a regular projective curve whose quotient curve has genus zero and prove…
Some new kinds of special curves called $\overset{\_}{\xi}$-helix, $\overset{% \_}{\xi}_{1}$-helix, $\overset{\_}{\mu}$-helix, $\overset{\_}{\nu}$-helix and $W_{k}$-Darboux helices $(k\in \left\{ {n,r,o}\right\} )$ in the Myller…
In this paper we focus on various aspects of singular complex plane curves, mostly in the context of their homological properties and the associated combinatorial structures. We formulate some challenging open problems that can point to new…
We study the spectral properties of certain non-self-adjoint matrices associated with large directed graphs. Asymptotically the eigenvalues converge to certain curves, apart from a finite number that have limits not on these curves.
By variational methods, we prove existence of planar closed curves with prescribed curvature for some classes of curvature functions. The main difficulty is to obtain bounded Palais-Smale sequences. This is achieved by adding a parameter in…
We consider embedded, smooth curves in the plane which are either closed or asymptotic to two lines. We study their behaviour under curve shortening flow with a global forcing term. Firstly, we prove an analogue to Huisken's distance…
We investigate the singularities of two-ruled hypersurfaces in the Euclidean four-space. By considering the points that minimize the distance between adjacent rulings, we obtain a characterization the striction curve. We introduce the…
This paper introduces pedal curves of spacelike frontals in the hyperbolic 2-space. We mainly investigate the singularities of these hyperbolic pedal curves of spacelike frontals for non-singular and singular dual curve germs. We then show…
In the late 1990s, B. Y. Chen introduced the notion of special slant surfaces in K\"{a}hler surfaces and classified non-minimal proper special slant surfaces with constant mean curvature in $2$-dimensional complex space forms. In this…
We develop a transfer matrix formalism to visualize the framing of discrete piecewise linear curves in three dimensional space. Our approach is based on the concept of an intrinsically discrete curve, which enables us to more effectively…
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 investigate helicoidal (screw) surfaces generated not only by regular curves but also by curves with singular points. For curves with singular points, it is useful to use frontals in the Euclidean plane. The helicoidal surface of a…
This study investigates the differential geometric properties of Smarandache curves derived from null curves defined in the ligtlike cone space $% Q_{3}^{2}\subset E_{2}^{4}$. The indefinite metric structure causes the null vectors, and…
We study geometry of curves passing through a Whitney umbrella by using a Darboux frame along it. We define three invariants by using Frenet-Serre type formula relating to the geodesic curvature, the normal curvature, and the geodesic…
Various curvature conditions are studied on metrics admitting a symmetry group. We begin by examining a method of diagonalizing cohomogeneity-one Einstein manifolds and determine when this method can and cannot be used. Examples, including…
We present the general theory of curves in conformal geometry using tractor calculus. This primarily involves a tractorial determination of distinguished parametrizations and relative and absolute conformal invariants of generic curves. The…
In this paper, we define a new type of ruled surface called ruled surface by using the alternative frame of a base curve. Then, we study its differential geometric properties such as striction line, distribution parameter, fundamental…
Embedding diagrams have been used extensively to visualize the properties of curved space in Relativity. We introduce a new kind of embedding diagram based on the {\it extrinsic} curvature (instead of the intrinsic curvature). Such an…
We study singularities of Gauss maps of fronts and give characterizations of types of singularities of Gauss maps by geometric properties of fronts which are related to behavior of bounded principal curvatures. Moreover, we investigate…
The aim of this work is to study the Mannheim curves in 3-dimensional Galilean and Pseudo - Galilean space. We obtain the characterizations between the curvatures and torsions of the Mannheim partner curves.
