A characterization of regular saddle surfaces in the hyperbolic and spherical three‐space
We prove that the class of regular saddle surfaces in the hyperbolic or spherical three‐space coincides with the class of regular surfaces with curvature not greater than the curvature of the surrounding space. We also show that a similar result for nonregular surfaces is incorrect.

THE VECTOR FIELDS ACROSS THE TANGENT BUNDLE TO A SPINNING 2-SPHERE
Assuming a spinning 2-sphere in the Euclidean 3-space that is observed by a frame at any exterior point, we deduce the Coriolis effect, which asserts that the rotational directions of the flows on the Earth surface are opposite across the Equator. By the

. Studied is the problem of degeneracy of mechanical systems the configuration space of which is the three-dimensional sphere, the elliptic space, i.e., the quotient of that sphere modulo the antipodal identification, and finally, the three-dimensional ...

Singularities of lightcone pedals of spacelike curves in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space
In this paper, geometric properties of spacelike curves on a timelike surface in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space are investigated by applying the singularity theory of smooth functions from the contact viewpoint.

Curves in the Lorentz-Minkowski plane: elasticae, catenaries and grim-reapers
This article is motivated by a problem posed by David A. Singer in 1999 and by the classical Euler elastic curves. We study spacelike and timelike curves in the Lorentz-Minkowski plane 𝕃2 whose curvature is expressed in terms of the Lorentzian ...

On a generalization of Lissajous curves and its applications
In the paper we consider a generalization of classical Lissajous curves to the situation where corresponding differential forms involve square roots of quartics.

Smarandache Curves and Spherical Indicatrices in the Galilean 3-Space
In the present paper, Smarandache curves for some special curves in the three- dimensional Galilean space G 3 are investigated. Moreover, spherical indicatrices for the helix as well as circular helix are introduced.

MANNHEIM CURVES IN AN $N$-DIMENSIONAL LORENTZ MANIFOLD
In this paper, we give the definition of non-null Mannheim curve and null Mannheim curve in an n-dimensional Lorentz manifold. Furthermore, we give the condition for the non-null Mannheim partner curves and the null Mannhein partner curves.

SPACELIKE SUBMANIFOLDS IN DE SITTER SPACE
We investigate the differential geometry of spacelike submanifolds of codimension at least two in de Sitter space as an application of the theory of Legendrian singularities.
