| Abstract: | Given a point and a rational curve in the plane, their bisector curve is rational [2]. However, the bisector of two rational curves in the plane is not rational, in general [3]. Given a point and a rational {\em space} curve, this paper shows that the bisector surface is a rational ruled surface. Moreover, given two rational space curves, we show that the bisector surface is rational (except for the degenerate case in which the two curves are coplanar). |
