On the Stability of a Monotonicity Constraint for the Hubble Diagram

T. Schuecker, I. ZouZou

The Hubble diagram has a purely kinematical monotonicity constraint. We study its stability under small scalar perturbations in the Robertson--Walker metric and to small peculiar velocities of emitter and receiver. Our analysis is independent of any dynamical hypothesis.
