Ricci flow of negatively curved incomplete surfaces

Abstract

We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the issue of well-posedness in this class.
