Summary:We obtain an improved pseudolocality result for Ricci flows on two-dimensional surfaces that are initially almost-hyperbolic on large hyperbolic balls. We prove that, at the central point of the hyperbolic ball, the Gauss curvature remains close to the hyperbolic value for a time that grows exponentially in the radius of the ball. This two-dimensional result allows us to precisely conjecture how the phenomenon should appear in the higher dimensional setting.
