Strong Ulam stability of a countable discrete group
is uniform stability of approximate unitary
representations on all complex Hilbert spaces,
including infinite-dimensional ones. For a map
with
, its multiplication defect is
Stability means that for every there is a
such that defect at
most
implies the existence of a unitary representation
on the same
with
The norm is the operator norm, and
must work for every Hilbert space.
