The results presented in this paper are refinements of some results presented in a previous paper. Three such refined results are presented. The first one relaxes one of the basic hypotheses assumed in the previous paper, and thus extends…

In this paper, we investigate the generalized Hyers--Ulam--Rassias stability of the system of functional equations $$f(xy)=f(x)f(y), \qquad\qquad. f(2x+y)+f(2x-y)=2f(x+y)+2f(x-y)+12f(x), $$ on Banach algebras. Indeed we establish the…

In this paper we describe the solutions of the functional equation \begin{equation*} F\Big(\frac{x+y}2\Big)+f_1(x)+f_2(y)=G \big(g_1(x)+g_2(y)) \end{equation*} defined on an open subinterval of $ \mathbb{R} $. Improving previous results we…

For metric spaces $X$ and $Y$, normed spaces $E$ and $F$, and certain subspaces $A(X,E)$ and $A(Y,F)$ of vector-valued continuous functions, we obtain a complete characterization of linear and bijective maps $T:A(X,E)\to A(Y,F)$ preserving…

Two natural extensions of Jensen's functional equation on the real line are the equations $f(xy)+f(xy^{-1}) = 2f(x)$ and $f(xy)+f(y^{-1}x) = 2f(x)$, where $f$ is a map from a multiplicative group $G$ into an abelian additive group $H$. In a…

This article presents an elementary proof of the Implicit Function Theorem for differentiable maps F(x,y), defined on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space, with $\frac{\partial F}{\partial y}(x,y)$ only continuous at the base point. In the…

Building on work of Kuhlmann and Lisinski, we study the theory of the Hahn series field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(\!(\mathbb{Q})\!)$, over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, equipped with the $t$-adic valuation, in a language of valued fields. We prove…

If a function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be represented as the sum of $n$ periodic functions as $f=f_1+\dots+f_n$ with $f(x+\alpha_j)=f(x)$ ($j=1,\dots,n$), then it also satisfies a corresponding $n$-order difference equation…

We consider maps which preserve functions which are built out of the invariants of some simple vector fields. We give a reduction procedure, which can be used to derive commuting maps of the plane, which preserve the same symplectic form…

In this paper, the connection between the functional inequalities $$ f\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)\leq\frac{f(x)+f(y)}{2}+\alpha_J(x-y) \qquad (x,y\in D)$$ and $$ \int_0^1f\big(tx+(1-t)y\big)\rho(t)dt \leq\lambda f(x)+(1-\lambda)f(y)…

We show that the extension map \[ \mathcal{E}_{NS}(f)(z)=\frac{f(x+y)+f(x-y)}{2}+i\frac{f(x+y)-f(x-y)}{2}\mbox{ for all }z=x+iy\in\mathbb{H}\,, \] defined by Norton and Sullivan in '96, is the only locally linear extension map taking…

In this sequence of work we investigate polynomial equations of additive functions. We consider the solutions of equation \[ \sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}(x^{p_{i}})g_{i}(x)^{q_{i}}= 0 \qquad \left(x\in \mathbb{F}\right), \] where $n$ is a positive…

In this paper, we establish the general solution of the functional equation $$f(nx+y)+f(nx-y)=n^2f(x+y)+n^2f(x-y)+2(f(nx)-n^2f(x))-2(n^2-1)f(y)\eqno {0 cm}$$for fixed integers $n$ with $n\neq0,\pm1$ and investigate the generalized…

We construct functions $f \colon [0,1] \to [0,1]$ whose graph as a subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ has Hausdorff dimension greater than any given value $\alpha \in (1,2)$ but conformal dimension $1$. These functions have the property that a…

Efroymson's approximation theorem asserts that if $f$ is a $\mathcal{C}^0$ semialgebraic mapping on a $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ semialgebraic submanifold $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and if $\varepsilon:M\to \mathbb{R}$ is a positive continuous…

A function $f$ from a subset of $\R^n$ to $\R$ is continuous at the origin, if and only if $\lim_{t\to 0+} f(\bs(t))=f(\bnull)$ for all continuous paths $\bs$ with $\lim_{t\to 0+} \bs(t)=\bnull$. The continuity of $f$ can, however, be…

We construct a fully faithful functor from the category of graphs to the category of fields. Using this functor, we resolve a longstanding open problem in computable model theory, by showing that for every nontrivial countable structure S,…

Let F be a global function field and let F^ab be its maximal abelian extension. Following an approach of D.Hayes, we shall construct a continuous homomorphism \rho: Gal(F^ab/F) \to C_F, where C_F is the idele class group of F. Using class…

We prove a version of both Jacobi's and Montel's Theorems for the case of continuous functions defined over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. In particular, we prove that, if \[ \Delta_{h_0}^{m+1}f(x)=0 \ \ \text{for all}…

The notion of a shift-compact set in an abelian topological group $X$ plays a significant role in functional equations and inequalities, especially so since each Borel set that is not Haar-meagre, alternatively not Haar-null, is necessarily…
