Abstract

We show that the normalized Kähler-Ricci flow on a compact Kähler manifold with semiample canonical bundle converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology to the metric completion of the twisted Kähler-Einstein metric on the canonical model, as conjectured by Song-Tian's analytic mimimal model program.
