Abstract

This paper investigated the rotation minimizing frames that are related to the space curves and the sweeping surfaces that are traced by these frames in the three-dimensional Lie group. Then, the sufficient and necessary conditions for the sweeping surface to be a developable ruled surface were obtained. In particular, we mostly focused on the study of the resulting developable surface is a cylinder, cone, or tangent surface. Meanwhile, to support the results in the paper, some illustrative examples are presented.
