We introduce the mean curvature flow of curves in the Minkowski plane $\mathbf R^{1,1}$ and give a classification of all the self-similar solutions. In addition, we describe five other exact solutions to the flow.
We describe all possible self-similar motions of immersed hypersurfaces in Euclidean space under the mean curvature flow and derive the corresponding hypersurface equations. Then we present a new two-parameter family of immersed helicoidal surfaces that rotate/translate with constant velocity under the flow. We look at their limiting behaviour as the pitch of the helicoidal motion goes to 0 and compare it with the limiting behaviour of the classical helicoidal minimal surfaces. Finally, we give a classification of the immersed cylinders in the family of constant mean curvature helicoidal surfaces.
We give a classification of all self-similar solutions to the curve shortening flow in the plane.
