Abstract: We study the long-time behavior of solutions of the $k$-Hessian evolution equation $u_t=S_k(D^{2}u)$, posed on a bounded domain of the $n$-dimensional space with homogeneous boundary conditions. To this end, we construct a separable solution and we show that the long-time behavior of $u$ is precisely described by this special solution. Further, we initiate the study of that dynamic phenomenon on the entire space, providing a new class of explicit and radially symmetric self-similar solutions that we call $k$-Barenblatt solutions. These solutions present some common properties as those of well-known Barenblatt solutions for the porous media equation and the $p$-Laplacian equation. It is known that self-similar solutions are important in describing the intermediate asymptotic behavior of general solutions.
