Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to give a sufficient condition for (strong) stability of non-proper smooth functions (with respect to the Whitney $C^{i}nfty$-topology). We show that a Morse function is stable if it is end-trivial at any point in its discriminant, where end-triviality (which is also called local triviality at infinity) is a property concerning behavior of functions around the ends of the source manifolds. We further show that a Morse function $f:NomathbbR$ is strongly stable (i.e. there exists a continuous mapping $gmapsto(Ph{i}_g,ph{i}_g)inoperatornameDiff(N)imesoperatornameDiff(mathbbR)$ such that $ph{i}_{g}circgcircPh{i}_g=f$ for any $g$ close to $f$) if (and only if) $f$ is quasi-proper. This result yields existence of a strongly stable but not infinitesimally stable function. Applying our result on stability, we give a reasonable sufficient condition for stability of Nash functions, and show that any Nash function becomes stable after a generic linear perturbation.
