A translation surface of Euclidean space $\r^3$ is the sum of two regular curves $\alpha$ and $\beta$, called the generating curves. In this paper we classify the minimal translation surfaces of $\r^3$ and we give a method of construction…

We prove that if a translating soliton can be expressed as the sum of two curves and one of these curves is planar, then the other curve is also planar and consequently the surface must be a plane or a grim reaper. We also investigate…

A $\lambda$-translating soliton with density vector $\vec{v}$ is a surface in Euclidean space whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $2H=2\lambda+\langle N,\vec{v}\rangle$, where $N$ is the Gauss map. We classify all $\lambda$-translating…
