An alternative functional equation related to the quadratic
equation
Choodech Srisawat
ABSTRACT: Given a rational number ? ?= 2, we establish a criterion for the existence of the general solution of an
alternative quadratic functional equation of the form
f (x y) + f (x y?1
) = 2f (x) + 2f ( y) or f (x y) + f (x y?1
) = ?f (x) + 2f ( y),
where f is a mapping from an abelian group (G,?) to a uniquely divisible abelian group (H,+). We also find the general
solution in the cases when G is a 6-divisible abelian group and G is a cyclic group.
