On the Stability of Quadratic Functional Equations

Abstract EN

Let X,Y be vector spaces and k a fixed positive integer.

It is shown that a mapping f(kx+y)+f(kx-y)=2k2f(x)+2f(y) for all x,y∈X if and only if the mapping f:X→Y satisfies f(x+y)+f(x-y)=2f(x)+2f(y) for all x,y∈X.

Furthermore, the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of the above functional equation in Banach spaces is proven.
