W-Curves in Lorentz-Minkowski Space

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the chord properties of the non-null W-curves in Lorentz-Minkowski space. We give the general equation form for W-curves in (2n+1)-dimension. We define some special curves and give the relations between these curves and isoparametric surfaces. Finally we obtain the geodesics of the pseudospherical cylinder and pseudohyperbolic cylinder in 4-dimensional space.

Keywords

W-curve,isoparametric surface,Lorentz-Minkowski space
