Abstract

In this article, based on Thorpe's definition, we define a new curve called the B-lift curve in Lorentzian 3-space and examine the Frenet vectors of the B-lift curve. Furthermore, we examine the relationship between the Frenet vectors of the Bertrand curve and the Frenet vectors of the natural lift curve. Finally, we give an example on these results.

Keywords
