Abstract

In this paper curves in threedimensional Minkowski space were analyzed and the main differences in local theory of curves in Euclidean and Minkowski space were emphasized. Special attention is paid to curves with no Euclidean counterpart. There are numerous examples of studied curves whose graphic representations were made by Mathematica software.

Keywords

Minkowski space; spacelike curve; timelike curve; lightlike curve
