Singular angles of weak limiting metrics under certain integral curvature bounds

Qing Chen, Xiuxiong Chen and Weiyong He

Vol. 231 (2007), No. 1, 35–49
Abstract

We prove that a nonvanishing weak limit of Riemannian metrics in surfaces with an integral curvature bound admits only weak cusp singularities. The result is useful toward generalizing classical uniformization theory to surfaces with boundary.

Keywords
Riemannian metric, weak limit, singular angle
