Abstract
Let be a closed Riemann surface, and let be a weak solution to equation where is a signed Radon measure. We aim to establish estimates for the gradient of that are independent of the choice of the metric . This is particularly relevant when the complex structure approaches the boundary of the moduli space. To this end, we consider the metric as a metric of bounded integral curvature. This metric satisfies a so-called quadratic area bound condition, which allows us to derive gradient estimates for in local conformal coordinates. From these estimates, we obtain the desired estimates for the gradient of .
