摘要

We introduce the Frenet theory of curves in dual space \(\mathbb {D}^3\) D 3 . After defining the curvature and the torsion of a curve, we classify all curves in dual plane with constant curvature. We also establish the fundamental theorem of existence in the theory of dual curves, proving that there is a dual curve with prescribed curvature and torsion. Finally we classify all dual curves with constant curvature and torsion.
