On Bäcklund Transformation Between Timelike Curves in Minkowski Space-Time

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to define Bäcklund transformation between two timelike curves in four dimensional Minkowski space. For this purpose, we examine the transformation depending on the choice of rotation matrix which determines the relations between Frenet frames of timelike Bäcklund curves. There are three different cases for rotation matrix; two of them are spherical rotations on the spacelike hyperplane and one of them is hyperbolical rotation on the timelike hyperplane. For each case, we get the relations between curvature functions of timelike Bäcklund curves. By the way, we prove that timelike Bäcklund curves must have equal constant second torsion functions up to sign. This also means that Bäcklund transformation is a transformation which maps a timelike curve with constant second torsion to another timelike curve with constant second torsion.
