Abstract: If $varphi$ and $psi$ are two continuous real-valued functions defined on a compact topological space $X$ and $G$ is a subgroup of the group of all homeomorphisms of $X$ onto itself, the natural pseudo-distance $d_G(varphi,psi)$ is defined as the infimum of $mathcalL(g)=|varphi-psicircg{|}_{i}nfty$, as $g$ varies in $G$. In this paper, we make a first step towards extending the study of this concept to the case of Lie groups, by assuming $X=G=S^1$. In particular, we study the set of the optimal homeomorphisms for $d_G$, i.e. the elements $h{o}_{a}lpha$ of $S^1$ such that $mathcalL(h{o}_{a}lpha)$ is equal to $d_G(varphi,psi)$. As our main results, we give conditions that a homeomorphism has to meet in order to be optimal, and we prove that the set of the optimal homeomorphisms is finite under suitable conditions.
