摘要
In this paper, we study spacelike and timelike curves of constant breadth in Minkowski 3-space. We show that in Minkowski 3-space spacelike and timelike curves of constant breadth are normal, helices, and spherical curves in some special cases. Furthermore, we give that the total torsion of a closed spacelike curve of constant breadth is zero while the total torsion of a simple closed timelike curve is equal to 2 pi n, (n is an element of Z).
