Some New Characterizations of The Harmonic and Harmonic 1-Type Curves in Euclidean 3-Space

Abstract A Laplace operator and harmonic curve have very important uses in various engineering science such as quantum mechanics, wave propagation, diffusion equation for heat, and fluid flow. Additionally, the differential equation characterizations of the harmonic curves play an important role in estimating the geometric properties of these curves. Hence, this paper proposes to compute some new differential equation characterizations of the harmonic curves in Euclidean 3-space by using an alternative frame named the N-Bishop frame. Firstly, we investigated some new differential equation characterizations of the space curves due to the N-Bishop frame. Secondly, we firstly introduced some new space curves which have the harmonic and harmonic 1-type vectors due to alternative frame N-Bishop frame. Finally, we compute new differential equation characterizations using the N-Bishop Darboux and normal Darboux vectors. Thus, using these differential equation characterizations we have proved in which conditions the curve indicates a helix.
