Özet
In this study, we consider the Lorentzian rotation about a lightlike axis. First, we introduce a geometric characterization for the rotation angle between two vectors that can overlap each other under a Lorentzian rotation about a lightlike axis. Then, we give a definition for the angle measurement between two spacelike vectors whose vector product is lightlike. Later, we generalize the Lorentzian rotation about a lightlike axis, and determine matrices of these transformations using the Cartan frame and the well-known Rodrigues formula, then using the Cayley map, and finally using the generalized split quaternions. We see that such transformations give parabolic rotational motions on general cones or general hyperboloids of one or two sheets, while they also give linear rotational motions on general hyperboloids of one sheet.
