1. Introduction It is well known that, if a curve is differentiable in an open interval, at each point, a set of mutually orthogonal unit vectors can be constructed, and these vectors are called Frenet frame or moving frame vectors. The rates of these frame vectors along the curve define curvatures of the curve. The set, whose elements are frame vectors and curvatures of a curve is called Frenet apparatus of the curves. In recent years, the theory of degenerate submanifolds has been treated by researchers and some classical differential geometry topics have been extended to Minkowski space [1–3] and Galilean space [4]. For instance in [1,2] the authors extended and studied Smarandache curves in Minkowski space-time. A regular curve in Euclidean space E4 , whose position vectors is composed

by Frenet frame vectors on another regular curve is called Smarandache curve. Special Smarandache curves in three dimensional Euclidean space studied in [5].

The Bishop frame [6] or parallel transport frame is an alternative approach to defining a moving frame that is well defined even when the curve has vanishing second derivative. We can parallel transport an othonormal frame along a curve simply by parallel transporting each component of the frame in Euclidean 4space. The parallel transport frame is based on the observation that while T(s) for the given curve model is unique, we may chose any convenient arbitrary basis which consists of relatively paral-

lel vector fields {M1 (s), M2 (s), M3 (s)} of the frame, such that they are perpendicular to T(s) at each point[7,8]. The parallel transport frame in four dimensional Euclidean space is studied in [9].

Smarandache curves were studied from deferent researchers in three dimensional Euclidean space [10–14]. Smarandache curves in 4-dimensional Galilean space are presented in [15]. In this paper we study Smarandache curves in 4-dimensional space according to the Frenet frame and parallel transport frame.

t, n, b1 , and b2 are called, respectively, the tangent, the principal normal, the first binormal and the second binormal vector fields of the curves. The functions k1 (s), k2 (s) and k3 (s) are called respectively, the first, the second and the third curvature of the curve α .

The curve is called W − curve if it has constant curvatures k1 , k2 and k3 .

Let α = α (t ) be an arbitrary curve in E4 . The Frenet apparatus of the curve α can be calculated by the following equations.

Proof. Let β = β (sβ ) be tb1 Smarandache curve of the curve α .

Then From Definition (2) we have β (sβ ) = √1 (t (s ) + b1 (s ))

where η is taken ± 1 such that determinant of matrix [t,n,b1,b2] is equal to one.

The Bishop frame or parallel transport frame is an alternative approach to define a moving frame that is well defined even when the curve has vanishing second derivative [9]. One can express parallel transport of an orthonormal frame along a curve simply by parallel transporting each component of the frame. The tangent vector and the convenient arbitrary basis for the remainder of the frame are used. The parallel transport equations in E4 can be expressed as

Definition 2. Let α = α (s ) be a unit-speed curve with constant and nonzero curvatures k1 , k2 , k3 and {t, n, b1 , b2 } be moving frame on it, tb1 Smarandache curves are defined by β (sβ ) = √1 (t (s ) +
