摘要
The differential equation characterizing a spherical curve in R-3 expresses the radius of curvature of the curve in terms of its torsion. In this paper, we have given a generalization of this equation for a curve lying in an arbitrary surface in R-3. Moreover, we have established the analogue of the Frenet equations for a curve lying in a surface of R-3. We have also revisited some formulas for the geodesic torsion of a curve lying in a surface of R-3.
