A note on d'Alembert's functional equation (Q5953064)

The author reproves the well known fact that the bounded, measurable and real-valued solutions of d'Alembert's functional equation on \(\mathbb{R}^n\) are 0 and the functions \(x\to\cos \langle x,\xi\rangle\), \(x\in \mathbb{R}^n\), where \(\xi\) ranges over \(\mathbb{R}^n\). The new feature of the paper is that it uses the theory of almost-periodic functions in the proof.
