  • In this paper we consider the existence of rotationally symmetric entire solutions for the prescribed higher mean curvature spacelike equations in Minkowski spacetime. As a first step, we study the associated 0-Dirichlet problems on a ball, and then we prove that all possible solutions can be extended to + ∞. The proof of our main results are based upon the topological degree methods and the standard prolongability theorem of ordinary differential equations.
