High codimension mean curvature flow of spacelike-convex submanifolds with one spacelike codimension
In the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1,k}$, we consider the mean curvature flow of $n$-dimensional spacelike submanifolds with spacelike codimension one and arbitrary timelike codimension $k$. We show that if the initial submanifold is compact and spacelike-convex (the acceleration along every geodesic is strictly spacelike), then natural quantities measuring curvature pinching and noncollapsing are preserved under the flow. Moreover, we prove an analogue of the Huisken and Gage-Hamilton theorems in this setting, which states that the mean curvature flow deforms any such submanifold to a point in finite time, and that the solution is asymptotic to a shrinking sphere in a maximally spacelike affine subspace $\mathbb{R}^{n+1,0}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1,k}$.
