Abstract

We show a correspondence between the evolute of a null curve and the involute of a certain spacelike curve in the 4-dimensional Minkowski space. Also we characterize pseudo-spherical null curves in the n-dimensional Minkowski space in terms of the curvature functions.

Keywords

Null curve, Minkowski space, Frenet frame, Cartan curvature.
