Abstract
In this paper, we study the limiting flow of conical Kähler–Ricci flow modified by a holomorphic vector field on a compact Kähler manifold M which carries an effective \({\mathbb {R}}\)-ample divisor D with simple normal crossing support. By smooth approximation, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the flow with cusp singularity when the twisted canonical bundle \(K_M+D\) is ample. At last, we show that the flow converges to a soliton-type metric.
