We investigate the geometric properties of lightlike surfaces in the Minkowski space $\R^{2,1}$, using Cartan's method of moving frames to compute a complete set of local invariants for such surfaces. Using these invariants, we give a…

A mathematical smooth function means that the function has continuous derivatives to a certain degree C(k). We call it a k-smooth function or a smooth function if k can grow infinitively. Based on quantum physics, there is no such smooth…

In Euclidean plane geometry, cycloids are curves which are homothetic to their respective bi-evolutes. In smooth normed planes, cycloids can be similarly defined, and they are characterized by their radius of curvature functions being…
