MS Mahemaics subjec Classificaio (000): 505, 57, 5B0 Key words phrases: uled surface, imelike surface, Darboux vecor curvaures, obo rajecory plaig, obo ed-effecor. Iroducio he mehods of robo rajecory corol currely used are based o PP (poi o poi) CP (coiuous pah) mehods. hese mehods are basically ierpolaio echiques, herefore, are approximaios of he real pah rajecory []. I such cases, whe a precise rajecory is eeded, or we eed o race a free formed or aalyical surface accuraely, he precisio is oly proporioal o he umber of iermediae daa pois for each-playback or offlie programmig. For accurae robo rajecory, he mos impora aspec is he coiuous represeaio of orieaio whereas he posiio represeaio is relaively easy. here are mehods such as homogeeous rasformaio, Quaerio, Euler gle represeaio o describe he orieaio of a body i a hree dimesioal space []. hese mehods are easy i cocep bu have high redudacy i parameers are discree represeaio i aure raher ha coiuous. herefore, a mehod based o he curvaure heory of a ruled surface has bee proposed as a aleraive [6]. uled surfaces were firsly ivesigaed by G. Moge who esablished he parial differeial equaio saisfied by all ruled surfaces. uled surfaces have bee widely applied i desigig cars, ships, maufacurig (e.g. CD/CM) of producs may oher areas such as moio aalysis simulaio of rigid body, model-based objec recogiio sysem. fer , Coos, Ferguso, Gordo, Bezier, ohers developed ew surface defiiios ha were ivesigaed i may areas. However, ruled surfaces are sill widely used i may areas i moder surface modellig sysems. he ruled surfaces are surfaces swep ou by a sraigh lie movig alog a curve he sudy of ruled surfaces is a ieresig research area i he heory of surfaces i Euclidea geomery. heory of ruled surfaces is developed by boh usig surface heory E. Sudy

2 map which eables oe o ivesigae he geomery of ruled surfaces by meas of oe real parameer. I is also kow ha heory of ruled surfaces is applicable o heoreical kiemaics. Mikowski space is amed for he Germa mahemaicia Herma Mikowski, who aroud 907 realized ha he heory of special relaiviy (previously developed by Eisei) could be elegaly described usig a four-dimesioal space-ime which combies he dimesio of ime wih he hree dimesios of space. Four dimesioal Euclidea space wih a Lorezia meric, which is he space of special relaiviy, is called Mikowski space-ime, a Lorez space is a hypersurface of Mikowski space-ime. here are los of papers dealig wih ruled surfaces i Lorez space (cf. [ ]). Prelimiaries Le be a -dimesioal Lorezia space wih Lorez meric ds² dx²+dx ² dx ². If <X,Y> 0, X Y are called perpedicular i he sese of Lorez, where <, > is he iduced ier produc i. he orm of X is, as usual, X < X, X>. Le X be a vecor. If < X,X> <0, he X is called imelike; if <X,X> >0 X 0, he X is called spacelike if <X,X> 0, X 0, he X is called lighlike (ull) vecor []. We ca observe ha a imelike curve correspods o he pah of a observer movig a less ha he speed of ligh while he spacelike curves faser he ull curves are equal of he speed of ligh. smooh regular curve α : I is said o be a imelike, spacelike or lighlike curve if he velociy vecor α (s) is a imelike, spacelike, or lighlike vecor, respecively. surface i he Mikowski -space is called a imelike surface if he iduced meric o he surface is a Lorez meric, i.e., he ormal o he surface is a spacelike vecor. imelike ruled surface i is obaied by a imelike sraigh lie movig alog a spacelike curve or by a spacelike sraigh lie movig alog a imelike curve. he imelike ruled surface M is give by he paramerizaio ϕ :I, ϕ (s,υ) α () s +υx() () i (cf. [-4-8-9]). he arc-legh of a spacelike curve α, measured from α ( s0), s 0 I is s() α '( u) du () 0 he parameer, s, is deermied such ha α '( s), where α '( s) ((dα)/(ds)). Le us deoe V₁ α call V₁(s) a ui age vecor of α a he poi s. We defie he curvaure by k (s) α''( s), α''( s).

3 If k₁(s) 0, he he ui pricipal ormal vecor, V (s), of a imelike curve α a he poi s is give by α (s) k₁(s)v (s). For ay X (x₁,x,x ), Y (y₁,y,y ), he Lorezia vecor produc of X Y is defied as X Y (x y x y, x y x y, x y x y ) he ui vecor V (s) V₁(s) V (s) is called a ui biormal vecor of imelike curve α a he poi s. Now, we give some properies of wihou proof: Le, B, C, i is sraighforward o see he followig. B -B ; < B, > < B, B> 0; or B is imelike B is spacelike; < B, C> <B C, >; B are spacelike B is imelike; < B, B> <,B> <,><B,B> B 0 B are liearly depede [-4]. Le α be a imelike curve i le us deoe V₁ α. he we ca ge Free formulas V ₁(s) k₁(s)v (s) V (s) k₁(s)v₁(s)+k (s)v (s) V (s) k (s)v (s) where k (s) is he orsio of a imelike curve α a poi s. surface i he -dimesioal Lorez space is called a imelike surface if he iduced meric o he surface is a Lorez meric, i.e., he ormal o he surface is a spacelike vecor []. imelike curve α α(s), parameerized by aural paramerizaio, is a frame field {e, e, e }, havig he followig properies <e₁,e₁>, < e,e > < e,e > <e₁,e > <e₁,e > < e,e > 0, e₁ e e e₁ e e e e e₁. he ifiiesimal displaceme of he frame is give as α (s) e₁, e₁ (s) κ(s) e e (s) κ(s)e₁+τ(s) e, e (s) τ(s) e where e₁(s) is he age imelike vecor field, e (s) is he pricipal ormal vecor field e (s) is he biormal vecor field. he fucios κ(s) τ(s) are he curvaure orsio of he curve, α(s), respecively.
