In the present paper, we study a non-degenrate ruled surface along a null curve in a 3-dimensional Minkowski space E31, which is called a null scroll, an investigate some characterizations of null scrolls satisfying the condition H=AH, A Mat(3, ), where denotes the Laplacian of the surface with respect to the induced metric, H the mean curvature vector and Mat(3, ) the set of 3$\times$3-real matrices.

In this paper, the trajectory scroll in 3-dimensional Minkowski space-time $E_1^3$ is given by a firmly connected oriented line moving with Cartan frame along curve. Some theorems and results between curvatures of base curve and distribution parameter of this surface are obtained. Moreover, some theorems and results related to being developable and minimal of this surface are given. And also, some relationships among geodesic curvature, geodesic torsion and the curvatures of base curve of trajectory scroll are found.

In this study, we investigate the curvature functions of ruled surface with lightlike ruling for a null curve with Cartan frame in Minkowski 3-space. Also, we give relations between the curvature functions of this ruled surface and curvature functions of central normal surface. Finally, we use the curvature theory of the ruled surface for determine differential properties of a robot end-effector motion.

In this paper, we study ruled surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean and Minkowski space in terms of their Gauss map. We obtain classification theorems for these type of surfaces whose Gauss map G satisfying ${\Box}G=f(G+C)$ for a constant vector $C{\in}{\mathbb{E}}^3$ and a smooth function f, where ${\Box}$ denotes the Cheng-Yau operator.
