Asymptotic behavior of alternative Jensen and Jensen type functional equations

In 1941 D.H. Hyers solved the well-known Ulam stability problem for linear mappings. In 1951 D.G. Bourgin was the second author to treat the Ulam problem for additive mappings. In 1982-2005 we established the Hyers-Ulam stability for the Ulam problem of linear and nonlinear mappings. In 1998 S.-M. Jung and in 2002-2005 the authors of this paper investigated the Hyers-Ulam stability of additive and quadratic mappings on restricted domains. In this paper we improve our bounds and thus our results obtained, in 2003 for Jensen type mappings and establish new theorems about the Ulam stability of additive mappings of the second form on restricted domains. Besides we introduce alternative Jensen type functional equations and investigate pertinent stability results for these alternative equations. Finally, we apply our recent research results to the asymptotic behavior of functional equations of these alternative types. These stability results can be applied in stochastic analysis, financial and actuarial mathematics, as well as in psychology and sociology.
