Abstract
We prove that the van Dam–Veltman–Zakharov discontinuity arising in the massless limit of massive gravity theories is peculiar to Minkowski space and it is not present in anti-de Sitter space, where the massless limit is smooth. More generally, the massless limit is smooth whenever the square of the graviton mass vanishes faster than the cosmological constant.
