Abstract

We study oriented surfaces in the Heisenberg space Nil3\mathrm{Nil}_3 whose mean curvature HH at each point is H=N,z+λH=\langle N,\partial_z\rangle+\lambda, where NN is the unit normal, z\partial_z is the vertical Killing vector field and λR\lambda\in\mathbb{R}. These surfaces are known as λ\lambda-translators and generalize, among others, minimal and positive constant mean curvature surfaces, and also translating solitons of the mean curvature flow. The objective in this paper is to classify λ\lambda-translators invariant by the following one-parameter groups of isometries of Nil3\mathrm{Nil}_3: left-translations, rotations and helicoidal motions.
