Approximation of radical functional equations related to quadratic and quartic mappings (Q441980)

The authors obtain general solutions of the following functional equations: NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\begin{aligned} f(\sqrt{ax^2+ by^2}) &= af(x)+ bf(y),\\ f(\sqrt{ax^2+ by^2})+ f(|ax^2- by^2|) &= 2a^2 f(x)+ 2b^2 f(y),\end{aligned}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(a\), \(b\) are fixed positive real numbers. They prove the generalized Ulam stability of those functional equations in 2-normed spaces. Moreover, they generalize Ulam stability results controlled by more general mappings.
