摘要

In this paper, we define primitive surfaces of curves in the Euclidean 3-space. The correlations between primitive surfaces and pedals, pedal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space are established. By using the singularity theory, we give the classification of singularities of primitive surfaces. We find these singularities are closely related to the contact between the spatial curves and specific spheres. Moreover, we study primitive surfaces from the viewpoint of spherical Legendrian dualities. At last, several examples are provided to demonstrate our results.
