ON MANNHEIM PARTNER CURVES IN DUAL LORENTZIAN SPACE

Abstract

In this paper we define non-null Mannheim partner curves in three dimensional dual Lorentzian space D 3 1, and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of non-null Mannheim partner curves in dual Lorentzian space D 3 1.
