Abstract

In this paper, we study curvature theory of point-line trajectories in Lorentz 3-space. We give

the characterization by indicatrix, directrix and their relationship in Lorentz 3-space. We use this

characterization and relationship to depict a point-line trajectory.

Keywords

Curvature, Directrix; Indicatrix, Point-line trajectories, Lorentzian 3-space
