Abstract: It was shown in a previous work of the first named author with De Chiffre, Glebsky and Thom that there exists a finitely presented group which cannot be approximated by almost-homomorphisms to the unitary groups $U(n)$ equipped with the Frobenius norms (a.k.a as $L^2$ norm, or the Schatten-2-norm). In his ICM18 lecture, Andreas Thom asks if this result can be extended to general Schatten-p-norms. We show that this is indeed the case for $1<p<infty$.

Review text

This paper is a continuation of a joint paper of the first author [\textit{M. De Chiffre} et al., Forum Math. Sigma 8, Paper No. e18, 37 p. (2020; Zbl 1456.22002)], where it was shown that there exists a finitely presented group which cannot be approximated by almost-homomorphisms to the unitary groups \(U(n)\) with the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. Here the authors show that there is a finitely presented group which cannot be approximated by almost-homomorphisms to the unitary groups \(U(n)\) in the Schatten-\(p\)-norm, for any \(1<p<\infty\), answering a question asked by Andreas Thom in his ICM18 lecture.The proof is similar to the one used in the above cited article for the case \(p = 2\), plus some further cohomology vanishing results.
