This paper shows the existence of convex translating surfaces under the flow by the $\alpha$-th power of Gauss curvature for the sub-affine-critical regime $ 0 < \alpha < 1/4$. The key aspect of our study is that our ansatz at infinity is…

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…
