The pseudo spherical indicatrix of a curve in Minkowski 3 -space emerges as three types: the pseudo spherical tangent indicatrix, principal normal indicatrix, and binormal indicatrix of the curve. The pseudo spherical tangent, principal normal, and binormal indicatrix of a regular curve may be positioned on De Sitter 2 -space (pseudo sphere), pseudo hyperbolic 2-space, and two-dimensional null cone in terms of causal character of the curve. In this paper, we separately derive Euler–Lagrange equations of all pseudo spherical indicatrix elastic curves in terms of the causal character of a curve in Minkowski 3 -space. Then we give some results of solutions of these equations.
