LetXandYbe vector spaces. We show that a functionf:X→Ywithf(0)=0satisfiesΔf(x1,…,xn)=0for allx1,…,xn∈X, if and only if there exist functionsC:X×X×X→Y,B:X×X→YandA:X→Ysuch thatf(x)=C(x,x,x)+B(x,x)+A(x)for allx∈X, where the functionCis symmetric for each fixed one variable and is additive for fixed two variables,Bis symmetric bi-additive,Ais additive andΔf(x1,…,xn)=∑k=2n(∑i1=2k∑i2=i1+1k+1⋯∑in-k+1=in-k+1n)f(∑i=1,i≠i1,…,in-k+1nxi-∑r=1n-k+1xir)+f(∑i=1nxi)-2n-2∑i=2n(f(x1+xi)+f(x1-xi))+2n-1(n-2)f(x1)(n∈N,n≥3) for allx1,…,xn∈X. Furthermore, we solve the stability problem for a given functionfsatisfyingΔf(x1,…,xn)=0, in the Menger probabilistic normed spaces.
By using fixed point methods and direct method, we establish the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the following additive-quadratic functional equationf(x+ky)+f(x−ky)=f(x+y)+f(x−y)+(2(k+1)/k)f(ky)−2(k+1)f(y)for fixed integerskwithk≠0,±1in fuzzy Banach spaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
