[For the entire collection see Zbl 0728.00004.] The paper provides a survey of results and developments concerning the problem of finding various necessary and sufficient conditions for functions \(h=h(x,y)\) to be decomposable into the form \(h(x,y)=\sum^ n_{k=1}f_ k(x)g_ k(y)\) (with a prescribed \(n\)), and also the analogous problems for functions in more than two variables. The results which go back to J. d'Alembert and C. Stéphanos are stated in terms of some functional determinants like the Wronskian. No proofs are presented.
