Fast Methods for Spherical Linear Interpolation in Minkowski Space

open access: yes, 2015
Spherical linear interpolation in Minkowski space has got a number of important applications in computer graphics, physics and kinematics. Spherical linear interpolation in Minkowski space involves the computation of trigonometric functions, which are ...

Cubic helices in Minkowski space

open access: yes, 2006
We discuss space-like and light-like polynomial cubic curves in Minkowski (or pseudo-Euclidean) space R 2;1 with the property that the Minkowski-length of the first derivative vector (or hodograph) is the square of a polynomial.

Ruled W-surfaces in Minkowski 3-space $\Re _{1}^{3}$

open access: yes, 2008
summary:In this paper, we study a spacelike (timelike) ruled W-surface in Minkowski 3-space which satisfies nontrivial relation between elements of the set $\lbrace K,\ K_{II},\ H,\ H_{II}\rbrace $, where $(K, H)$ and $(K_{II}, H_{II})$ are the Gaussian ...

Generalized Helicoidal Surfaces in Minkowski 5-space

open access: yes, 2021
In this paper, we study generalized helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski 5-space. We obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for generalized helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski 5-space to be minimal, flat or of zero normal curvature tensor, which are ...

New Kind Frenet Curves in Minkowski Space

open access: yes, 2021
In this study, we define new vector fields along a Frenet curve with nonvanishing curvatures in 4-dimensional Minkowski space R^4_1 . By using these vector fields we obtain some new planes and curves.

Geometry of Minkowski Space-Time

open access: yes, 2011
This book provides an original introduction to the geometry of Minkowski space-time. A hundred years after the space-time formulation of special relativity by Hermann Minkowski, it is shown that the kinematical consequences of special relativity are ...

Orthogonality in Generalized Minkowski Spaces

open access: yes, 2016
We combine functional analytic and geometric viewpoints on approximate Birkhoff and isosceles orthogonality in generalized Minkowski spaces which are finite-dimensional vector spaces equipped with a gauge. This is the first approach to orthogonality types in such spaces.

Ordering Events in Minkowski Space

open access: yes, 2005
Let p1,..., pk be k points (events) in (n+1)-dimensional Minkowski space R1,n. Using the theory of hyperplane arrangments and chromatic polynomials, we obtain information on the number of different orders in which the events can occur in different ...

Minkowski space-time and hyperbolic geometry

open access: yes
It has become generally recognized that hyperbolic (i.e. Lobachevskian) space can be represented upon one sheet of a two-sheeted cylindrical hyperboloid in Minkowski space-time.
