Abstract

For a compact group G\mathbb{G} acting continuously on a Banach Lie group U\mathbb{U}, we prove that maps GU\mathbb{G}\to \mathbb{U} close to being 1-cocycles for the action can be deformed analytically into actual 1-cocycles. This recovers Hyers-Ulam stability results of Grove-Karcher-Ruh (trivial G\mathbb{G}-action, compact Lie G\mathbb{G} and U\mathbb{U}) and de la Harpe-Karoubi (trivial G\mathbb{G}-action, U:=\mathbb{U}:=invertible elements of a Banach algebra). The obvious analogues for higher cocycles also hold for abelian U\mathbb{U}.
