Abstract
Using the derivational formulas for stripes we derive in section 1 the derivational formulas for spacecurves in three-dimensional conformal spaceM 3. With a curve we associate locally a one-parameter family of so calledQ 4-surfaces having contact of order 5. AQ 4-surface is generated by two special parabolic pencils of spheres. We investigate alsoQ 4-surfaces having contact of orderk(k=7,8). Section 2 deals with isogonal-trajectories on the surface of the principal circles of the given spacecurve. We avoid invariant parameters as used in projective geometry for getting results of conformal geometry.
