In this paper we study singularities of certain surfaces and curves associated with the family of rectifying planes along space curves. We establish the relationships between singularities of these subjects and geometric invariants of curves which are deeply related to the order of contact with helices.
The notion of a structure tensor of section of first order natural bundles with homogeneous standard fibre is introduced. Properties of the structure tensor operator are studied. The universal factorization property of the structure tensor operator is proved and used for classification of first order -natural differential operators for .
In this paper we describe the close relationship between invariant evolutions of projective curves and the Hamiltonian evolutions of Adler, Gel'fand and Dikii. We also show how KdV evolutions are related as well to invariant evolutions of projective surfaces.
