Abstract

In this paper, firstly, we consider non-null curves of -type in -dimensional Minkowski space  and obtain some relations between first and second curvatures of them. Then, we give some conditions in order to be non-null Bertrand curve of -type curves with  and  in . Also, we deal with weak -type and weak -type non-null curves and investigate first curvature for weak .

Keywords
