The law of large numbers and a functional equation

Maciej Sablik — 1998

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We deal with the linear functional equation (E) g ( x ) = i = 1 r p i g ( c i x ) , where g:(0,∞) → (0,∞) is unknown, ( p , . . . , p r ) is a probability distribution, and c i ’s are positive numbers. The equation (or some equivalent forms) was considered earlier under different assumptions (cf. [1], [2], [4], [5] and [6]). Using Bernoulli’s Law of Large Numbers we prove that g has to be constant provided it has a limit at one end of the domain and is bounded at the other end.

Mean values for vector valued functions and corresponding functional equations

Roman GerMaciej Sablik — 2013

Commentationes Mathematicae

Although, in general, a straightforward generalization of the Lagrange mean value theorem for vector valued mappings fails to hold we will look for what can be salvaged in that situation. In particular, we deal with Sanderson’s and McLeod’s type results of that kind (see [9] and [7], respectively). Moreover, we examine mappings with a prescribed intermediate point in the spirit of the celebrated Aczél’s theorem characterizing polynomials of degree at most 2 (cf. [1]).
