The generalized pomeron functional equation

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2296549





Summary: This paper investigates the linear functional equation with constant coefficients \(\varphi \left(t\right) = \kappa \varphi \left(\lambda t\right) + f \left(t\right)\), where both \(\kappa > 0\) and \(1 > \lambda > 0\) are constants, \(f\) is a given continuous function on \(\mathbb{R} \), and \(\varphi : \mathbb{R} \longrightarrow \mathbb{R}\) is unknown. We present all continuous solutions of this functional equation. We show that (i) if \(\kappa > 1\), then the equation has infinite many continuous solutions, which depends on arbitrary functions; (ii) if \(0 < \kappa < 1\), then the equation has a unique continuous solution; and (iii) if \(\kappa = 1\), then the equation has a continuous solution depending on a single parameter \(\varphi \left(0\right)\) under a suitable condition on \(f\).
