Position vectors of slant helices in Euclidean 3-space

In this paper, position vector of a slant helix with respect to standard frame in Euclidean space E3 is studied in terms of Frenet equations. First, a vector differential equation of third order is constructed to determine a position vector of an arbitrary slant helix. In terms of solution, we deter...
