ON THE GENERAL SOLUTION OF A QUARTIC FUNCTIONAL EQUATION

In this paper, we determine the general solution of the quartic equation f(x+2y)+f(xi2y)+6f(x) = 4(f(x+y)+f(xiy)+ 6f(y)) for all x;y 2R without assuming any regularity conditions on the unknown function f. The method used for solving this quartic functional equation is elementary but exploits an important result due to M. Hosszu (3). The solution of this functional equation is also determined in certain commutative groups using two important results due to L. Szekelyhidi (5).

A generalization of the cosine-sine functional equation on groups

Abstract The functional equation f ( xy )= f ( x ) g ( y )+ g ( x ) f ( y )+ h ( x ) h ( y ) is solved where f , g , h are complex functions defined on a group.

On a functional equation of Swiatak on groups

for ψ,g,h: K → G, where K is a field belonging to a certain class, and G is an abelian group. This functional equation was one of the several treated by Abel in his 1823 manuscript. Recently, this equation was solved by Aczél and also independently by Lajko without any regularity assumption when K = G = ℜ (reals).
