The concept of stability for a functional equation arises when one replaces a functional equation by an inequality, which acts as a perturbation of the equation. In the 1940 S. M. Ulam posed the first stability problem. In the following year \textit{D. H. Hyers} [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 27, 222--224 (1941; Zbl 0061.26403)] gave a partial affirmative answer to the question of Ulam. Hyers' theorem was generalized by \textit{T. Aoki} [J. Math. Soc. Japan 2, 64--66 (1950; Zbl 0040.35501)] for additive mappings and by \textit{T. M. Rassias} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 72, 297--300 (1978; Zbl 0398.47040)] for linear mappings by considering an unbounded Cauchy difference. In the present work, the authors introduce an \(m\)th root functional equation on commutative \(C^*\)-algebras and then, by using the fixed point approach, they prove the Hyers-Ulam stability of this functional equation.
