Abstract
Curves on surface are called osculating Darboux curve and rectifying Darboux curve if its position vectors always lies in the osculating Darboux plane and rectifying Darboux plane which are spanned by Darboux frame. We study the case that osculating Darboux curve and rectifying Darboux curve are geodesic, line of curvature or asymptotic curve. In this case, we determine each curve is related to rectifying curve, spherical curve and planer curve. Using this result, we also give the classification of a special developable surface under the condition of the existence of osculating Darboux curve as a geodesic or a line of curvature. As a result, in this case, we determine these developable surfaces become conical surfaces.
