초록

Let M3 q(c) denote the 3-dimensional space form of index q = 0, 1, and constant curvature c 6= 0. A curve α immersed in M3 q(c) is said to be a Bertrand curve if there exists another curve β and a one-to-one correspondence between α and β such that both curves have common principal normal geodesics at corresponding points. We obtain characterizations for both the cases of non-null curves and null curves. For non-null curves our theorem formally agrees with the classical one: nonnull Bertrand curves in M3 q(c) correspond with curves for which there exist two constants λ 6= 0 and μ such that λκ + μ = 1, where τ and  stand for the curvature and torsion of the curve. As a consequence, non-null helices in M3 q(c) are the only twisted curves in M3 q(c) having infinite non-null Bertrand conjugate curves. In the case of null curves in the 3-dimensional Lorentzian space forms, we show that a null curve is a Bertrand curve if and only if it has non-zero constant second Frenet curvature. In the particular case where null curves are parametrized by the pseudo-arc length parameter, null helices are the only null Bertrand curves.

Abstract

Let M3 q(c) denote the 3-dimensional space form of index q = 0, 1, and constant curvature c 6= 0. A curve α immersed in M3 q(c) is said to be a Bertrand curve if there exists another curve β and a one-to-one correspondence between α and β such that both curves have common principal normal geodesics at corresponding points. We obtain characterizations for both the cases of non-null curves and null curves. For non-null curves our theorem formally agrees with the classical one: nonnull Bertrand curves in M3 q(c) correspond with curves for which there exist two constants λ 6= 0 and μ such that λκ + μ = 1, where τ and  stand for the curvature and torsion of the curve. As a consequence, non-null helices in M3 q(c) are the only twisted curves in M3 q(c) having infinite non-null Bertrand conjugate curves. In the case of null curves in the 3-dimensional Lorentzian space forms, we show that a null curve is a Bertrand curve if and only if it has non-zero constant second Frenet curvature. In the particular case where null curves are parametrized by the pseudo-arc length parameter, null helices are the only null Bertrand curves.
