Abstract

In the present paper, we introduce the concept of a slant vector field \(\chi\) defined on a hypersurface S, as a generalization of the tangent vector field on S, and investigate the problem of its existence, uniqueness and integral curve. Among other things, we provide an integral equation and also a differential equation for the integral curve of \(\chi\), say \(\alpha\), defined on an open interval I containing 0 such that \(\alpha (0)=p\), where p is an arbitrary point of the hypersurface. At the end, we also investigate some special cases and some examples.
