Abstract

In this study, we state some basic results about the geometry of the special linear group SL(2,R), seen as a subset of  in terms of the left invariant fields, such as bracketing, Levi Civita connection ∇ and Riemann curvature tensor R, we give some basic theorems for Mannheim partner curves  in the special linear group. We also find the relations between the curvatures and torsions of these associated curves and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a given curve to be a Mannheim partner curve of another given curve through a relation between its curvature and torsion.

Key words: Special linear group, Mannheim curves, Mannheim, partner curves.
