Abstract


We derive a general differential equation satisfed by the distance function for quaternionic curves in Euclidean 4-space. By using this differential equation, we express characterizations of some special quaternionic curves such as spherical curves and rectifying curves. Lastly, we reconsider the characterization of a quaternionic  general helix.


Keywords

Quaternionic curve, spherical curve, rectifying curve, general helix.
