ON SPHERICAL INDICATRICES AND THEIR SPHERICAL IMAGE OF NULL CURVES IN MINKOWSKI 3-SPACE

Öz

In this paper, we investigate the spherical images of null curves and null helixes in Minkowski 3-space. We provide the spherical indicatrices of null curves in Minkowski 3-space with their causal characteristics. We also show the conditions of spherical indicatrices of null curves to be a curve lying on pseudo-sphere in Minkowski 3-space. In addition, we give the properties of spherical indicatrices of null curves satisfying generalized helices and lying on pseudo-sphere in Minkowski 3-space.
