On special kinds of involute and evolute curves in 4-dimensional Minkowski space (Q2333642)

Summary: Recently, extensive research has been done on evolute curves in Minkowski space-time. However, the special characteristics of curves demand advanced level observations that are lacking in existing well-known literature. In this study, a special kind of generalized evolute and involute curve is considered in four-dimensional Minkowski space. We consider (1,3)-evolute curves with respect to the casual characteristics of the (1,3)-normal plane that are spanned by the principal normal and the second binormal of the vector fields and the (0,2)-evolute curve that is spanned by the tangent and first binormal of the given curve. We restrict our investigation of (1,3)-evolute curves to the (1,3)-normal plane in four-dimensional Minkowski space. This research contribution obtains a necessary and sufficient condition for the curve possessing the generalized evolute as well as the involute curve. Furthermore, the Cartan null curve is also discussed in detail.
