Jan 15, 2016 at 1:32 comment added J. GE I was really interested in exotic smooth structures, so let's assume $N_i$ and $M$ are all homeomorphic at the beginning.
Jan 15, 2016 at 1:29 comment added Igor Belegradek In the pointed case there are counterexamples, coming from e.g. cusp opening of hyperbolic manifolds of dimension 2 and 3: closed hyperbolic manifolds can converge to noncompact hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume. I do not undertand what you said about moving the basepoint and preventing collapse.
Jan 15, 2016 at 1:12 comment added J. GE @IgorBelegradek, I mean global, unpointed. But for pointed version, you have counterexample? moving the center point to infinity can prevent manifold from collapsing in finite volume case?
Jan 15, 2016 at 0:59 comment added Igor Belegradek The question is still unclear: did you mean pointed GH convergence or unpointed GH convergence?

Jan 14, 2016 at 23:41 comment added J. GE @IgorBelegradek, thanks, the $\to$ means GH convergence. Yes, you are right, I need to exclude the tangent cone here, so what if all $N_i$ and $M$ are of finite volume?
Jan 14, 2016 at 18:06 comment added Igor Belegradek What do you mean by $N_i\to M$ for open manifolds? If you mean pointed GH convergence, then let $N_i$ be the fixed metric on $N$ rescaled by $i$, so that the limit is a Euclidean space, which need not homeomorphic to $N$.
