Abstract

We study the limiting behavior of the Kähler-Ricci flow on ℙ(O ℙn ⊕ O ℙn(-1) ⊕(m+1)) for m, n ≥ 1, assuming the initial metric satisfies the Calabi symmetry. We show that the flow either shrinks to a point, collapses to ℙ n or contracts a subvariety of codimension m + 1 in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense. We also show that the Kähler-Ricci flow resolves a certain type of cone singularities in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense.
