A saddle-point property of the self-similar solutions in the curve shortening flow was conjectured by Abresch and Langer and confirmed by Au. An improvement on Au's solution is presented.

Abstract In this paper the existence of positive $2\pi $-periodic solutions to the ordinary differential equation $$\begin{equation*} u^{\prime\prime}+u=\frac{f}{u^3} \ \textrm{ in } \mathbb{R} \end{equation*}$$is studied, where $f$ is a positive $2\pi $-periodic smooth function. By virtue of a new generalized Blaschke–Santaló inequality, we obtain a new existence result of solutions.

Using certain solutions of the curve shortening flow, including self-shrinking and self-expanding curves or spirals, we construct and characterize many new examples of translating solitons for mean curvature flow in complex Euclidean plane. They generalize the Joyce, Lee and Tsui ones [Self-similar solutions and translating solitons for Lagrangian mean curvature flow, J. Differential Geom.84 (2010) 127–161] in dimension two. The simplest (non-trivial) example in our family is characterized as the only (non-totally geodesic) Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian translating soliton for mean curvature flow in complex Euclidean plane.
