We consider a generalization of a functional equation that models the learning process in various animal species. The equation can be considered nonlocal, as it is built with a convex combination of the unknown function evaluated at mixed…
One of the most basic results concerning the number-theoretic properties of the partition function $p(n)$ is that $p(n)$ takes each value of parity infinitely often. This statement was first proved by Kolberg in 1959, and it was…

In 1995, Meinardus & Berg presented a reformulation of the Collatz Conjecture in terms of a functional equation in a single complex variable over the open unit disk. This paper generalizes that method to deal with not only a large class of…

In this paper we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for solving a general class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on compact almost Hermitian manifolds, extending a recent work of Guo-Song. As applications, we determine the…
The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…

A certain functional-difference equation that Runyon encountered when analyzing a queuing system was solved in a combined effort of Morrison, Carlitz, and Riordan. We simplify that analysis by exclusively using generating functions, in…
