Abstract

In this paper, we classify helix (spacelike, timelike and null) curves, directed by the geodesic flow vector field, on the (3-dimensional) unit tangent bundle of a pseudo-Riemannian surface of constant Gaussian curvature endowed with a pseudo-Riemannian g-natural metric of Kaluza-Klein type. We find, in particular, that every such helix curve is, in fact, a circular helix in the senses that its curvature and torsion are constant.
