The Frenet frame is generally known an orthonormal vector frame for curves. But, it does not always meet the needs of curve characterizations. In this study, with the help of associated curves of any spatial curve we obtained a new…

We describe the curves of constant (geodesic) curvature and torsion in the three-dimensional round sphere. These curves are the trajectory of a point whose motion is the superposition of two circular motions in orthogonal planes. The global…

A novel formulation of the Lie-Darboux method of obtaining the Riccati equations for the spatial curves in Euclidean three-dimensional space is presented. It leads to two Riccati equations that differ by the sign of torsion. The case of…
In this study, we have identified $V_3$ slant helix ($2^{nd}$ type slant helix, $V_5$ slant helix ($3^{rd}$ type slant helix) and attained some characteristic properties in the Euclidean 5-Space $E^5$. In addition to this, we have proven…
This paper is devoted to the study of AW(k)-type curves according to the equiform differential geometry of the pseudo-Galilean space. We show that equiform Bertrand curves are circular helices or isotropic circles of the pseudo-Galilean…
