Spacelike Self-Similar Shrinking Solutions of the Mean Curvature Flow in Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces

Abstract

I classify spacelike self-similar shrinking solutions of the mean curvature flow in pseudo-euclidean space in arbitrary codimension, if the mean curvature vector is not a null vector and the principal normal vector is parallel in the normal bundle. Moreover, I exclude the existence of such self-shrinkers in several cases. The classification is analogous to the existing classifications in the euclidean case of Huisken and Smoczyk.
