Abstract

In this paper, position vector of a spacelike slant helix with respect to standard frame are deduced in Minkowski space $E^3_1$. Some new characterizations of a spacelike slant helices are presented. Also, a vector differential equation of third order is constructed to determine position vector of an arbitrary spacelike curve. In terms of solution, we determine the parametric representation of the spacelike slant helices from the intrinsic equations. Thereafter, we apply this method to find the parametric representation of some special spacelike slant helices such as: Salkowski and anti-Salkowski curves.
