Abstract. Let p be an even positive integer and Up(H) the Banach-Lie group of unitary operators u which verify that u �� 1 belongs to the p-Schatten idealLet p be an even positive integer and Up(H) the Banach-Lie group of unitary operators u which verify that u �� 1 belongs to the p-Schatten idealu which verify that u �� 1 belongs to the p-Schatten ideal Bp(H). Let O be a smooth manifold on which Up(H) acts transitively and smoothly. Then one can endow O with a natural Finsler metric in terms of the p-Schatten norm and the action of Up(H). Our main result establishes that for any pair of given initial conditionsp(H). Let O be a smooth manifold on which Up(H) acts transitively and smoothly.

Our main result establishes that for any pair of given initial conditions x 2 O and X 2 (TO)x2 O and X 2 (TO)x there exists a curve (t) = etz  x in O, with z a skew-hermitian element in the(t) = etz  x in O, with z a skew-hermitian element in the p-Schatten class, such that-Schatten class, such that (0) = x and _(0) = X;(0) = x and _(0) = X; which remains minimal as long as tkzkp  =4. Moreover,  is unique with these properties. We also show that the metric space (O; d) (where d is the recti able distance) is complete. In the process we establish minimality results in the groups Up(H), and a convexity property for the recti able distance. As an example of these spaces, we treat the case of the unitary orbittkzkp  =4. Moreover,  is unique with these properties.

As an example of these spaces, we treat the case of the unitary orbit O = fuAu : u 2 Up(H)g= fuAu : u 2 Up(H)g of a self-adjoint operator A 2 B(H).A 2 B(H).
