Let $$\Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^n$$ be open, and let $$E\subset \Omega$$ be a nonempty closed subset of $$\Omega$$. Let $$M\geq 1$$ and $$\delta\in(0,+\infty]$$ be given. $$E$$ is called an $$(\Omega,M,\delta)$$-quasiminimal set of dimension $$d$$ if $H^d(E\cap B)<\infty \quad \text{for any closed ball }B\subset\Omega$ and $H^d(E\cap W_f)\leq MH^d(f(E\cap W_f)) \qquad (\text{here } W_f=\{x\in\Omega;\;f(x)\not= x\}),$ for every Lipschitz map $$f: \Omega\to\Omega$$ satisfying certain conditions involving the parameter $$\delta$$. In this paper, the author shows that Hausdorff limits of Almgren quasiminimal sets are quasiminimal with the same constants, which generalizes a result of L. Ambrosio, N. Fusco and J. E. Hutchinson [Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 16, No. 2, 187–215 (2003; Zbl 1047.49015)].
