A Generalized Cubic Functional Equation

In this paper, we determine the general solution of the functional equation f1 （2x ＋ y） ＋ f2（2x - y） = f3（x ＋ y） ＋ f4（x - y） ＋ f5（x） without assuming any regularity condition on the unknown functions f1,f2,f3, f4, f5 ： R→R. The general solution of this equation is obtained by finding the general solution of the functional equations f（2x ＋ y） ＋ f（2x - y） = g（x ＋ y） ＋ g（x - y） ＋ h（x） and f（2x ＋ y） - f（2x - y） = g（x ＋ y） - g（x - y）. The method used for solving these functional equations is elementary but exploits an important result due to Hosszfi. The solution of this functional equation can also be determined in certain type of groups using two important results due to Szekelyhidi.     

Stability of the Quadratic Equation of Pexider Type

We will investigate the stability problem of the quadratic equation (1) and extend the results of Borelli and Forti, Czerwik, and Rassias. By applying this result and an improved theorem of the author, we will also prove the stability of the quadratic functional equation of Pexider type,f ₁ (x +y) + f₂(x -y) =f ₃(x) +f ₄(y), for a large class of functions.

Decomposer and associative functional equations

In the previous researches [2,3] b-integer and b-decimal parts of real numbers were introduced and studied by M.H. Hooshmand. The b-parts real functions have many interesting number theoretic explanations, analytic and algebraic properties, and satisfy the functional equation f (f(x) + y - f(y)) = f(x). These functions have led him to a more general topic in semigroups and groups (even in an arbitrary set with a binary operation [4] and the following functional equations have been introduced: Associative equations:

f(xf(yz))=f(f(xy)z),f(xf(yz))=f(f(xy)z)=f(xyz)

A comparative study of functional equations characterising sine and cosine

A comparative study of the functional equationsf(x+y)f(x–y)=f ²(x)–f ²(y),f(y){f(x+y)+f(x–y)}=f(x)f(2y) andf(x+y)+f(x–y)=2f(x){1–2f ²(y/2)} which characterise the sine function has been carried out. The zeros of the functionf satisfying any one of the above equations play a vital role in the investigations. The relation of the equationf(x+y)+f(x–y)=2f(x){1–2f ²(y/2)} with D'Alembert's equation,f(x+y)+f(x–y)=2f(x)f(y) and the sine-cosine equationg(x–y)=g(x)g(y) +f(x)f(y) has also been investigated.

On an Asymptotic Behavior of Exponential Functional Equation

The stability problems of the exponential （functional） equation on a restricted domain will be investigated, and the results will be applied to the study of an asymptotic property of that equation. More precisely, the following asymptotic property is proved： Let X be a real （or complex） normed space. A mapping f ： X → C is exponential if and only if f（x ＋ y） - f（x）f（y） → 0 as ｜｜x｜｜ ＋ ｜｜y｜｜ → ∞ under some suitable conditions.     

Stability of a Cubically Convergent Method for Generalized Equations

In Geoffroy et al, Acceleration of convergence in Dontchev's iterative method for solving variational inclusions Serdica Math. J. 29 (2003), pp. 45–54] we showed the convergence of a cubic method for solving generalized equations of the form 0 ∈ f(x) +- G(x) where f is a function and G stands for a set-valued map. We investigate here the stability of such a method with respect to some perturbations. More precisely, we consider the perturbed equation y ∈ f(x) +- G(x) and we show that the pseudo-Lipschitzness of the map (f +- G)⁻¹ is closely tied to the uniformity of our method in the sense that the attraction region does not depend on small perturbations of the parameter y. Finally, we provide an enhanced version of the convergence theorem established by Geoffroy, et al.

Existence and Uniqueness of Strong Solutions for a Class of Quasi‐Linear Hyperbolic Equations with Order Degeneration

Let k(y) > 0, 𝓁(y) > 0 for y > 0, k(0) = 𝓁(0) = 0 and lim_{y → 0}k(y)/𝓁(y) exists; then the equation L(u) ≔ k(y)u_xx – ∂_y(𝓁(y)u_y) + a(x, y)u_x = f(x, y, u) is strictly hyperbolic for y > 0 and its order degenerates on the line y = 0. Consider the boundary value problem Lu = f(x, y, u) in G, u|_AC = 0, where G is a simply connected domain in ℝ² with piecewise smooth boundary ∂G = AB∪AC∪BC; AB = {(x, 0) : 0 ≤ x ≤ 1}, AC : x = F(y) = ∫^y₀(k(t)/𝓁(t))^1/2dt and BC : x = 1 – F(y) are characteristic curves. Existence of generalized solution is obtained by a finite element method, provided f(x, y, u) satisfies Carathéodory condition and |f(x, y, u)| ≤ Q(x, y) + b|u| with Q ∈ L²(G), b = const > 0. It is shown also that each generalized solution is a strong solution, and that fact is used to prove uniqueness under the additional assumption |f(x, y, u₁) – f(x, y, u₂| ≤ C|u₁ – u₂|, where C = const > 0.

Sharp inequalities for convolution-type operators

Let μ be a probability measure on [− a, a], a > 0, and let x₀ε[− a, a], f ε Cⁿ([−2a, 2a]), n 0 even. Using moment methods we derive best upper bounds to ¦∫_−a^a ([f(x₀ + y) + f(x₀ − y)]/2) μ(dy) − f(x₀)¦, leading to sharp inequalities that are attainable and involve the second modulus of continuity of f⁽ⁿ⁾ or an upper bound of it.     

Error bounds for multidimensional Laplace approximation

A numerical estimate is obtained for the error associated with the Laplace approximation of the double integral I(λ) = ∝∝_D g(x,y) e^−λf(x,y) dx dy, where D is a domain in , λ is a large positive parameter, f(x, y) and g(x, y) are real-valued and sufficiently smooth, and ∝(x, y) has an absolute minimum in D. The use of the estimate is illustrated by applying it to two realistic examples. The method used here applies also to higher dimensional integrals.
