Minimal sets of moves for rotational Reidemeister diagrams are identified.

The paper characterizes special curves and generalizes rectifying-type curves in n-dimensional space.

We prove that a normal vector field along a curve in R3 is rotation minimizing (RM) if and only if it is parallel respect to the normal connection. This allows us to generalize all the results of RM vectors and frames to curves immersed in Riemannian manifolds.

In this paper, we investigate the ruled surfaces generated by a straight line according to rotation minimizing frame (RMF). Using this frame of a straight line, we obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions when the ruled surface is developable. Also, we give some new results and theorems related to be the asympt…

In this paper, Legendre curves on unit tangent bundle are given using rotation minimizing (RM) vector fields. Ruled surfaces corresponding to these curves are represented. Singularities of these ruled surfaces are also analyzed and classifed.

Rotation minimizing vector fields and frames were introduced by Bishop as an alternative to the Frenet frame. They are used in CAGD because they can be defined even the curvature vanishes. Nevertheless, many other geometric properties have not been studied. In the present paper, RM vector fields along a curve immersed …

In this work, we are interested in the differential geometry of curves in the simply isotropic and pseudo-isotropic 3-spaces, which are examples of Cayley-Klein geometries whose absolute figure is given by a plane at infinity and a degenerate quadric. Motivated by the success of rotation minimizing (RM) frames in Eucli…

The present paper attempts to show an alternative approach with regards to rational Pythagorean-hodograph (PH) curves and especially more natural approach for rational PH helices (i.e. rational helices). It exploits geometric features of rational helices to obtain a simpler construction of these curves and apply this t…

New method studies moving points on curves using rotating frames.

In this work, we study plane and spherical curves in Euclidean and Lorentz-Minkowski 3-spaces by employing rotation minimizing (RM) frames. By conveniently writing the curvature and torsion for a curve on a sphere, we show how to find the angle between the principal normal and an RM vector field for spherical curves. L…

New frame method simplifies solving variational problems with Euclidean symmetry.

In this study, we defined Fermi-Walker derivative in Galilean space $\mathbb{G}^3$. Fermi-Walker transport and non-rotating frame by using Fermi- Walker derivative are given in $\mathbb{G}^3$. Being conditions of Fermi-Walker transport and non-rotating frame are investigated along any curve for Frenet frame and Darboux…

New neural network processes 3D volumes with improved equivariance.

This thesis is devoted to the Differential Geometry of curves and surfaces along with applications in Quantum Mechanics. In the 1st part we introduce the well known Frenet frame. Later, we show that the curvature function is a lower bound for the scalar angular velocity of any other orthonormal moving frame, from which…

The paper is devoted to study the Dirichelet energy of moving frames on 2-dimensional tori immersed in the euclidean $3\leq m$-dimensional space. This functional, called Frame energy, is naturally linked to the Willmore energy of the immersion and on the conformal structure of the abstract underlying surface. As first …

New Alexander polynomial defined for transverse graphs.

For a two-dimensional surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space we introduce an invariant linear map of Weingarten type in the tangent space of the surface, which generates two invariants k and kappa. The condition k = kappa = 0 characterizes the surfaces consisting of flat points. The minimal surfaces are charac…

We define Wick-rotations by considering pseudo-Riemannian manifolds as real slices of a holomorphic Riemannian manifold. From a frame bundle viewpoint Wick-rotations between different pseudo-Riemannian spaces can then be studied through their structure groups which are real forms of the corresponding complexified Lie g…

Study spaces of knots and links in specific 3-manifolds.

We investigate the duality between minimal surfaces in Euclidean space and maximal surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski space in the family of rotational surfaces. We study if the dual surfaces of two congruent rotational minimal (or maximal) surfaces are congruent. We show that in the duality process by means of a one-parame…

Study on unique minimal hypersurfaces in rotational domains.

It has long been known to mathematicians and physicists that while a full rotation in three-dimensional Euclidean space causes tangling, two rotations can be untangled. Formally, an untangling is a based nullhomotopy of the double-twist loop in the special orthogonal group of rotations. We study a particularly simple, …

In the four-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with neutral metric there are three types of rotational surfaces with two-dimensional axis - rotational surfaces of elliptic, hyperbolic or parabolic type. A surface whose mean curvature vector field is lightlike is said to be quasi-minimal. In this paper we classify all q…

We investigate the relationship between the algebra of tensor categories and the topology of framed 3-manifolds. On the one hand, tensor categories with certain algebraic properties determine topological invariants. We prove that fusion categories of nonzero global dimension are 3-dualizable, and therefore provide 3-di…

Generalized Frenet frames for singular space curves

The consideration of the so-called rotation minimizing frames allows for a simple and elegant characterization of plane and spherical curves in Euclidean space via a linear equation relating the coefficients that dictate the frame motion. In this work, we extend these investigations to characterize curves that lie on a…

A holonomic knot is a knot in 3-space which arises as the 2-jet extension of a smooth function on the circle. A holonomic knot associated to a generic function is naturally framed by the blackboard framing of the knot diagram associated to the 1-jet extension of the function. There are two classical invariants of frame…

Study of timelike surfaces in Minkowski space with specific geometric properties.

It is known that the so-called rotation minimizing (RM) frames allow for a simple and elegant characterization of geodesic spherical curves in Euclidean, hyperbolic, and spherical spaces through a certain linear equation involving the coefficients that dictate the RM frame motion (da Silva, da Silva in Mediterr J Math …

Explains minimal surfaces and their properties.

The paper confirms Yau's conjecture for minimal rotational hypersurfaces.

We define general rotational surfaces of elliptic and hyperbolic type in the pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with neutral metric which are analogous to the general rotational surfaces of C. Moore in the Euclidean 4-space. We study Lorentz general rotational surfaces with plane meridian curves and give the complete classificat…

Lie minimal surfaces are characterized by differential equations of principal curvatures.

General rotational surfaces as a source of examples of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space have been introduced by C. Moore. In this paper we consider the analogue of these surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space. On the base of our invariant theory of spacelike surfaces we study general rotational surfaces with…

A marginally trapped surface in the four-dimensional Minkowski space is a spacelike surface whose mean curvature vector is lightlike at each point. We associate a geometrically determined moving frame field to such a surface and using the derivative formulas for this frame field we obtain seven invariant functions. Our…

In this paper we investigate relations between solutions to the minimal surface equation in Euclidean $3$-space $\mathbb{E}^3$, the zero mean curvature equation in Lorentz-Minkowski $3$-space $\mathbb{L}^3$ and the Born-Infeld equation under Wick rotations. We prove that the existence conditions of real solutions and i…
