Measurable solutions of a (2, 2)-type sum form functional equation

Summary In this paper we find the general measurable solutions of the functional equationF(xy) + F(x(1 – y)) – F((1 – x)y) – F((1 – x)(1 – y)) = G(x)H(y) (x, y ]0, 1[) whereF, G, H:]0, 1[ C are unknown functions. The solution of this equation is part of our program to determine the measurable solutions of the functional equationF₁₁(xy) + F₁₂(x(1 – y)) + F₂₁((1 – x)y) + F₂₂((1 – x)(1 – y)) = G(x)H(y) (x, y ]0, 1[). Our method of solution is based on the structure theorem of sum form equations of (2, 2)-type and on a result of B. Ebanks and the author concerning the linear independence of certain functions.
