In this paper, we define timelike curves in R⁴₂ and characterize such curves in terms of Frenet frame. Also, we examine the timelike helices of R⁴₂, taking into account their curvatures. In addition, we study timelike slant helices, timelike B₁-slant helices, timelike B₂-slant helices in four dimensional semi-Euclidean space, R⁴₂. And then we obtain an approximate solution for the timelike B₁ slant helix with Taylor matrix collocation method.

In this paper, we study the timelike Bertrand curves in Minkowski 3-space. Since the principal normal vector of a timelike curve is spacelike, the Bertrand mate curve of this curve can be a timelike curve, a spacelike curve with spacelike principal normal or a Cartan null curve, respectively. Thus, by considering these three cases, we get the necessary and sufficient conditions for a timelike curve to be a Bertrand curve. Also we give the related examples.

In this study, we mean that timelike q-helices are curves whose q-frame fields make a constant angle with a non-zero fixed axis. We present the necessary and sufficient conditions for timelike curves via the q-frame to be q-helices in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space. Then we find some results of the relations between q-helices and Darboux q-helices. Furthermore, we portray Darboux q-helices as special curves whose Darboux vector makes a constant angle with a non-zero fixed axis by choosing the curve as one of the types of q-helices, and also the general case.

In this work, we study the conditions between null geodesic curves and timelike ruled surfaces in dual Lorentzian space. For this study, we establish a system of differential equations characterizing timelike ruled surfaces in dual Lorentzian space by using the invariant quantities of null geodesic curves on the given ruled surfaces. We obtain the solutions of these systems for special cases. Regarding to these special solutions, we give some results of the relations between null geodesic curves and timelike ruled surfaces in dual Lorentzian space.

In this paper, we give some relations related with a spacelike principal-direction curve and a spacelike binormal-direction curve of a timelike Frenet curve. The Darboux-direction curve and the Darboux-rectifying curve of a timelike Frenet curve in Minkowski 3-space $E^3_1$ are introduced and some characterizations related with these associated curves are given. Later we define the spacelike V-direction curve which is associated with a timelike curve lying on a timelike oriented surface in $E^3_1$ and present some results together with the relationships between the curvatures of this associated curve.

In this paper, we calculate Frenet frames, Frenet derivative formulas, curvatures, arc lengths, geodesic curvatures according to the Lorentzian 3-space ℝ³₁, Lorentzian sphere 𝕊²₁ and hyperbolic sphere ℍ²₀ of the spherical indicatrix curves of the spacelike Salkowski curve with the timelike principal normal in ℝ³₁ and draw the graphs of these indicatrix curves on the spheres.

In this paper, we give the differential equations characterizing the timelike and spacelike curves of constant breadth in Minkowski 3-space $E^3_1$. Furthermore, we give a criterion for a timelike or spacelike curve to be the curve of constant breadth in $E^3_1$. As an example, the obtained results are applied to the case $\rho$ = const. and $k_2$ = const., and are discussed.

In this paper, using pseudo-spherical Frenet frame of pseudo-spherical curves in hyperbolic space, we define the notion of the structure functions on the non-developable ruled surfaces with timelike ruling. Then we obtain the properties of the structure functions and a complete classification of the non-developable ruled surfaces with timelike ruling in Minkowski 3-space by the theories of the structure functions.

In this paper, we generalize some results about Bertrand curves and Razzaboni surfaces in Euclidean 3-space to the case that the ambient space is Minkowski 3-space. Our discussion is divided into three different cases, i.e., the parent Bertrand curve being timelike, spacelike with timelike principal normal, and spacelike with spacelike principal normal. For each case, first we show that Razzaboni surfaces and their mates are related by a reciprocal transformation; then we give B$\ddot{a}$cklund transformations for Bertrand curves and for Razzaboni surfaces; finally we prove that the reciprocal and B$\ddot{a}$cklund transformations on Razzaboni surfaces commute.

In this paper, we define null Cartan and pseudo null Bertrand curves in Minkowski space ${\mathbb{E}}^3_1$ according to their Bishop frames. We obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for pseudo null curves to be Bertand B-curves in terms of their Bishop curvatures. We prove that there are no null Cartan curves in Minkowski 3-space which are Bertrand B-curves, by considering the cases when their Bertrand B-mate curves are spacelike, timelike, null Cartan and pseudo null curves. Finally, we give some examples of pseudo null Bertrand B-curve pairs.
