Convergence of compact Ricci solitons

We show that sequences of compact gradient Ricci solitons converge to complete orbifold gradient solitons, assuming constraints on volume, the $L^{n/2}$-norm of curvature, and the auxiliary constant $C_1$. The strongest results are in dimension 4, where $L^2$ curvature bounds are equivalent to upper bounds on the Euler number. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for limits to be compact.
