Namely, we show that there are only finitely many possible unfree factors of fundamental groups of~2-complexes whose systolic area is uniformly bounded. Furthermore, we prove a uniform systolic inequality for all 2-complexes with unfree fundamental group that improves the previously known bounds in this dimension.LATEX, 22 pagesDifferential GeometryGeometric Topology53C23text
