Constant Scalar Curvature of Three Dimensional Surfaces Obtained by the Equiform Motion of a helix

arXiv:0907.3980

Abstract

In this paper we consider the equiform motion of a helix in Euclidean space . We study and analyze the corresponding kinematic three dimensional surface under the hypothesis that its scalar curvature is constant. Under this assumption, we prove that if the scalar curvature is constant, then must equal zero.
