Solitons to Mean Curvature Flow in the hyperbolic 3-space
Abstract
We consider {translators} (i.e., initial condition of translating solitons) to mean curvature flow (MCF) in the hyperbolic -space , providing existence and classification results. More specifically, we show the existence and uniqueness of two distinct one-parameter families of complete rotational translators in , one containing catenoid-type translators, and the other parabolic cylindrical ones. We establish a tangency principle for translators in and apply it to prove that properly immersed translators to MCF in are not cylindrically bounded. As a further application of the tangency principle, we prove that any horoconvex translator which is complete or transversal to the -axis is necessarily an open set of a horizontal horosphere. In addition, we classify all translators in which have constant mean curvature. We also consider rotators (i.e., initial condition of rotating solitons) to MCF in and, after classifying the rotators of constant mean curvature, we show that there exists a one-parameter family of complete rotators which are all helicoidal, bringing to the hyperbolic context a distinguished result by Halldorsson, set in .
