Abstract

In this paper, we show that a class of metric spaces determined by a continuous function f, which defines on the metric space of all real, n × n-matrices m is closed under the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence. This conclusion can be used to prove some metric properties of metric space is stable under the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence. Secondly, we consider the stability problem in Gromov hyperbolic space and show that if a sequence of Gromov hyperbolic spaces (Xn, dn) is said to converge to (X, d) in the sense of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence, then the Gromov hyperbolicity δ(Xn) of (Xn, dn) tends to the Gromov hyperbolicity δ(X) of (X, d).
