A vital ingredient is a new compactness theorem for families of metrics on surfaces with a uniform bound on their volumes, square integrals of their curvatures and injectivity radii. In particular we prove blow up criteria for the harmonic Ricci flow and for the spinor flow on surfaces.Ricci flowSingularitiesSurfacesLimit spaces & RCD
