In the framework of the metric critical point theory, we prove a stability property of the critical groups, for a family of continuous functions which, in a common neighborhood of their respective unique critical point, satisfies a uniform Palais-Smale type condition and is continuous in the uniform topology.
Keywords: Metric Morse theory, continuous functions, critical groups.
