We propose a new concept of set convergence in a Hadamard space and obtain its equivalent condition by using the notion of metric projections. Applying this result, we also prove a convergence theorem for an iterative scheme by the shrinking projection method in a real Hilbert ball. 1. Introduction A Hadamard space is defined as a complete geodesic metric space satisfying the CAT 0 inequality for each pair of points in every triangle. Since this concept includes various important spaces, it has been widely studied by a large number of researchers. In 2004, Kirk 1 proved a fixed point theorem for a nonexpansive mapping defined on a subset of a Hadamard space, and, since then, the study of approximation theory for fixed points of nonlinear mappings has been rapidly developed. See 2–4 and references therein. Kirk and Panyanak 5 proposed a concept of convergence called Δ-convergence, which was originally introduced by Lim 6. This notion corresponds to usual weak co
