Here, ℙ is a Cartan-Hadamard manifold endowed with a rotationally symmetric metric and χ is a radial function defined in ℙ. In this setting, the higher order mean curvature flow is, up to a change of time parameter, given by translations along the factor ℝ in the warped product. This setting encompasses the cases of translating solitons in ℝⁿ⁺¹, ℍⁿ × ℝ and ℍⁿ⁺¹ studied in recent papers. In particular we prove the existence of families of bowl-type and catenoid-type translating solitons under mild assumptions about the curvature of the warped product. We also describe the asymptotic behavior for those solitons in terms of the geometry at infinity of ℙ. Our assumptions about the ambient metric allow us to control the higher order mean curvature of cylinders and to use them as barriers.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsRotational symmetry & warped products
