Abstract

In this work, we consider a perturbation of an asymptotically conical gradient expanding Kähler-Ricci soliton metric in the same Kähler class. We demonstrate that, under suitable assumptions, the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow starting from the initial perturbed metric exists for all time and converges uniformly to an asymptotically conical gradient expanding Kähler-Ricci soliton metric . Moreover, if the perturbed initial metric is asymptotic to at spatial infinity, then the limiting metric coincides with the original soliton, that is, .
