The author considers sequences of torsion-free non-elementary Kleinian groups. Let \(\rho_n : \Gamma_0 \to \text{PSL}_2 (\mathbb C)\) be homomorphisms of a finitely generated group \(\Gamma_0\). We say that the \(\rho_n\) converge algebraically to a homomorphism \(\rho_{\infty} : \Gamma_0 \to \text{PSL}_2 (\mathbb C)\) if \(\rho_n (\gamma)\) converge to \(\rho_{\infty} (\gamma)\) for every \(\gamma \in \Gamma_0\). If \(\Gamma_n = \rho_n(\Gamma_0)\) are Kleinian then \(\Gamma_{\infty} = \rho_{\infty} (\Gamma_0)\) is also Kleinian. The main theorem of the paper states the following. Let \(\rho_n : \Gamma_0 \to \Gamma_n\) be an algebraically convergent sequence of homomorphisms of a finitely generated group \(\Gamma_0\) onto Kleinian groups \(\Gamma_n\). Suppose that the limit sets \(\Lambda (\Gamma_n)\) converge to a closed subset \(\Lambda\) of \(S^2\) in the Hausdorff topology. Further suppose that \(\text{dim} \Lambda \geq 1\). Then \(\text{dim} \Lambda(\Gamma_n)\) converge to \(\text{dim} \Lambda\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0941.00017].
