Geometric conditions which imply compactness of the $\bar{\mathrm{\partial }}$-Neumann operator

For smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in $mathbb{C}^2$, we provide geometric conditions on (the points of infinite type in) the boundary which imply compactness of the $\bar{\mathrm{\partial }}$-Neumann operator. It is noteworthy that the proof of compactness does \emph{not} proceed via verifying the known potential theoretic sufficient conditions.
