“…x n + y n = f (x) + f (y), (1.2) which for k = 2, 3, 4 have been considered in [2,3,5,7,8,9,12,15], and some descriptions of solutions to it have been proposed (not always complete and correct). Moreover, the solutions and the Ulam type stability of the equation f ax 2 + by 2 = af (x) + bf (y) (1.3) have been considered in [9,10], for functions f mapping R into a real linear space X, with real a, b > 0 such that a + b = 1.…”
