Non-compactness of the space of minimal hypersurfaces

We show that the space of min-max minimal hypersurfaces is non-compact when the manifold has an analytic metric of positive Ricci curvature and dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$. Furthermore, we show that bumpy metrics with positive Ricci curvature admit minimal hypersurfaces with unbounded index+area. When combined with the recent work fo F.C. Marques and A. Neves, we then deduce some new properties regarding the infinitely many minimal hypersurfaces they found.
