Uniqueness of closed self-similar solutions to the Gauss curvature flow

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show the uniqueness of strictly convex closed smooth self-similar solutions to the αα-Gauss curvature flow with (1/n)<α<1+(1/n)(1/n) < α< 1+(1/n). We introduce a Pogorelov type computation, and then we apply the strong maximum principle. Our work combined with earlier works on the Gauss Curvature flow imply that the αα-Gauss curvature flow with (1/n)<α<1+(1/n)(1/n) < α< 1+(1/n) shrinks a strictly convex closed smooth hypersurface to a round sphere.
