On the compactness theorem for embedded minimal surfaces in $3$-manifolds with locally bounded area and genus

Given a sequence of properly embedded minimal surfaces in a $3$-manifold with local bounds on area and genus, we prove subsequential convergence, smooth away from a discrete set, to a smooth embedded limit surface, possibly with multiplicity, and we analyze what happens when one blows up the surfaces near a …
