Abstract

The concept of the natural mate and the conjugate curves associated to a smooth curve in Euclidian 3-space were introduced initially by Dashmukh and others. In this paper, we give some extra results that add more properties of the natural mate and the conjugate curves associated with a smooth space curve in E 3 . The position vectors of the natural mate and the conjugate of a given smooth curve are investigated. Also, using the position vector of the natural mate, the necessary and sufficient condition for a smooth given curve to be a Bertrand curve is introduced. Moreover, a new characterization of a general helix is introduced.
