Pseudo-Riemannian Submanifolds with 3-planar Geodesics

Abstract

In the present paper we study pseudo-Riemannian submanifolds which

have 3-planar geodesic normal sections.We consider W-curves (helices)

on pseudo-Riemannian submanifolds. Finally, we give neccessary and

sufficient condition for a normal section to be a W-curve on pseudo-

Riemannian submanifolds.

Abstract

Bu makalede, 3-düzlemsel normal kesitlere sahip Pseudo-Riemann Altmanifoldları çalıştık.

Pseudo-Riemann Altmanifoldları üzerinde W-eğrilerini(helis) ele aldık. Son olarak, Pseudo-Riemann Altmanifoldları üzerinde

bir normal kesitin W-eğrisi olması için gerek ve yeter koşulu verdik.
