In this paper we investigate a conjecture of Janusz Matkowski concerning the continuous solutions of the functional equation \[ f\big(f(-x)+x\big)=f\big(-f(x)\big)+f(x),\qquad x\in\mathbb{R}. \] Matkowski conjectured that all continuous…

A production function $f$ is called quasi-sum if there are strict monotone functions $F, h_1,...,h_n$ with $F'>0$ such that $$f(x)= F(h_1 (x_1)+...+h_n (x_n)).$$ The justification for studying quasi-sum production functions is that these…

In this paper, we are going to describe the solutions of the functional equation $$ \varphi\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)(f(x)+f(y))=\varphi(x)f(x)+\varphi(y)f(y) $$ concerning the unknown functions $\varphi$ and $f$ defined on an open interval.…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a real open interval $I$ is called $\Phi$-convex if, for all $x,y\in I$, $t\in[0,1]$ it satisfies $$ f(tx+(1-t)y)\leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)+t\Phi\big((1-t)|x-y|\big)+(1-t)\Phi\big(t|x-y|\big), $$ where…

Let $f :\R\to\R$ be a continuous function. We prove that under some additional assumptions on $f$ and $A:\R\to\R_{+}$, weak $\Cuno$ solutions of the differential inequality $-\diver(A(\abs{\nabla u})\nabla u)\ge f(u)$ on $\RN$ are…

Using the simple case of Blasius similarity solution, we illustrate a recently developed general method that reduces a strongly nonlinear problem into a weakly nonlinear analysis. The basic idea is to find a quasi-solution $F_0$ that…

Given a function $f$ in a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ of $q$ elements, we define the functional graph of $f$ as a directed graph on $q$ nodes labelled by the elements of ${\mathbb F}_q$ where there is an edge from $u$ to $v$ if and only if…

We consider nonnegative solutions to $-\Delta u=f(u)$ in half-planes and strips, under zero Dirichlet boundary condition. Exploiting a rotating$\&$sliding line technique, we prove symmetry and monotonicity properties of the solutions, under…

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…

We give an infinite class of counterexamples to the Gotsman-Linial conjecture when d = 2. On the other hand, we establish an asymptotic form of the conjecture for quadratic threshold functions whose non-zero quadratic terms define a graph…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$, what are all functions $f \colon \mathbb{F} \rightarrow \mathbb{F}$ that satisfy the functional equation $f \left( (x+y)/(x-y) \right) = (f(x) + f(y))/(f(x) - f(y))$ for all $ x \neq y$ in $\mathbb{F}$? We solve…

If a function $f$, acting on a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, is "almost" orthogonally additive in the sense that $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$ for all $(x,y)\in\bot\setminus Z$, where $Z$ is a "negligible" subset of the $(2n-1)$-dimensional manifold…

We prove that the composition of a quasi-nearly subharmonic function and a quasiregular mappings of bounded multiplicity is quasi-nearly subharmonic. Also, we prove that if $u\circ f$ is quasi-nearly subharmonic for all quasi-nearly…
