Abstract

In this paper, we define an extended family of slant curves (i.e. θα−slant curves) in S−manifolds. We give two examples of such curves in R2n+s(−3s), where we choose n = 1, s = 2. Finally, we study biharmonicity of these curves in S−space forms.

Keywords

θα−slant curve, S−manifold, biharmonic curve
