Translating solutions to the Gauss curvature flow with flat sides

Abstract

We derive local $C^{2}$ estimates for complete noncompact translating solitons of the Gauss curvature flow in $ℝ^{3}$ which are graphs over a convex domain $Ω$ . This is closely is related to deriving local $C^{1, 1}$ estimates for the degenerate Monge–Ampère equation. As a result, given a weakly convex bounded domain $Ω$ , we establish the existence of a $C_{loc}^{1, 1}$ translating soliton. In particular, when the boundary $\partial Ω$ has line segments, we show the existence of flat sides of the translator from a local a priori nondegeneracy estimate near the free boundary.
