Abstract :We consider transformations preserving asymptotic directions of surfaces in Minkowski 3-space and show that a transformation preserves the asymptotic directions of a surface if only if it is the projective one. Therefore, we obtain a characterization of the projective transformation.Keywords : Minkowski space, asymptotic direction, projective transformation
