Popis: | We generalize the Fenchel theorem to strong spacelike (which means that the tangent vector and the curvature vector span a spacelike 2-plane at each point) closed curves with index 1 in the 3-dimensional Lorentz space, showing that the total curvatures must be less than or equal to $2\pi$. A similar generalization of the Fary-Milnor theorem is also obtained. We establish the Crofton formula on the de Sitter 2-sphere which implies the above results. Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures.
