We classify the translators to the flows by sub-affine-critical powers of Gauss curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$. If $\alpha$ denotes the power, this is a Liouville theorem for degenerate Monge-Ampere equations $\det D^2u = (1+|Du|^2)^{2-\frac{1}{2\alpha}}$ for $0<\alpha<1/4$. For the affine-critical-case $\det D^2u =1$, the classical result by Jorgens, Calabi and Pogorelov shows the level curves of given solution are homothetic ellipses. In our case, the level curves converge asymptotically to a round circle or a curve with $k$-fold symmetry for some $k>2$. More precisely, these curves are closed shrinking curves to the $\frac {\alpha}{1-\alpha}$-curve shortening flow that were previously classified by B. Andrews in 2003. This is a joint work with K. Choi and S. Kim.
