Salkowski \cite{salkow}, one century ago, introduced a family of curves with constant curvature but non-constant torsion (Salkowski curves) and a family of curves with constant torsion but non-constant curvature (anti-Salkowski curves) in Euclidean 3-space $\e^3$. In this paper, we adapt definition of such curves to ti…
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 characterize such curves in terms of their curvature functions. Further, we obtain some re…
We give an explicit construction of a closed curve with constant torsion and everywhere positive curvature. We also discuss the restrictions on closed curves of constant torsion when they are constrained to lie on convex surfaces.
We study the geometric properties of Darboux transforms of constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces and use these transforms to obtain an algebro-geometric representation of constant mean curvature tori. We find that the space of all Darboux transforms of a CMC torus has a natural subset which is an algebraic curve (call…
We study surfaces with one constant principal curvature in Riemannian and Lorentzian three-dimensional space forms. Away from umbilic points they are characterized as one-parameter foliations by curves of constant curvature, each of these curves being centered at a point of a regular curve and contained in its normal p…
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 behavior may be periodic or the curve may be dense in a Clifford torus embedded…
In this paper, we classify the class of constant weighted curvature curves in the plane with a log-linear density, or in other words, classify all traveling curved fronts with a constant forcing term in R2. The classification gives some interesting phenomena and consequences including: the family of curves conv…
J.Eells and L. Lemaire introduced k-harmonic maps, and T. Ichiyama, J. Inoguchi and H.Urakawa showed the first variation formula. In this paper, we describe the ordinary differential equations of 3-harmonic curves into a Riemannian manifold with constant sectional curvature, and show biharmonic curve is k-harmonic cu…
Curves in Rn for which the ratios between two consecutive curvatures are constant are characterized by the fact that their tangent indicatrix is a geodesic in a flat torus. For n=3,4, spherical curves of this kind are also studied and compared with intrinsic helices in the sphere.
General area-preserving motion of polygonal curves is formulated as a system of ODEs. Solution polygonal curves belong to a prescribed polygonal class, which is similar to the admissible class used in the crystalline curvature flow. The ODEs are discretized implicitly in time keeping a given constant area speed while s…
In this paper we study properties of the area evolute (AE) and the center symmetry set (CSS) of a convex planar curve γ. The main tool is to define a Minkowski plane where γ becomes a constant width curve. In this Minkowski plane, the CSS is the evolute of γ and the AE is an involute of the CSS. We prove that the…
We derive various inequalities involving the intersection number of the curves contained in geodesics and tight geodesics in the curve graph. While there already exist such inequalities on tight geodesics, our method applies in the setting of geodesics. Furthermore, the method gives inequalities with a uniform constant…
Considering Riemannian submersions, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for when sub-Riemannian normal geodesics project to curves of constant first geodesic curvature or constant first and vanishing second geodesic curvatures. We describe a canonical extension of the sub-Riemannian metric and study geometric p…
