Abstract: Abstract 1. Variational Distance and Geometric Distance.—Let S be a limit class, i.e., a set for whose points convergence is defined. By a curve we mean a continuous mapping of a closed interval of real numbers into S. On the basis of the definition of convergence for points we can define convergence for sequences of curves.
