    The investigation of the scaling limit for mappings of the circle to itself with golden ratio rotation number leads to a pair of functional equations with at least a formal resemblance to the functional equation using the accumulation of period-doubling bifurcations. We discuss the general theory of these functional equations, assuming that solutions exist.
