An infinite natural product
We study a countably infinite iteration of the natural product between ordinals. We present an “effective” way to compute this countable natural product; in the non trivial cases the result depends only on the natural su...
On orthogonally additive functions with big graphs
Let $E$ be a separable real inner product space of dimension at least 2 and $V$ be a metrizable and separable linear topological space. We show that the set of all orthogonally additive functions mapping $E$ into $V$ and...
Solutions and stability of generalized Kannappan’s and Van Vleck’s functional equations
We study the solutions of the integral Kannappan’s and Van Vleck’s functional equations $$∫_{S}f(xyt)dμ(t) +∫_{S}f(xσ(y)t)dμ(t) = 2f(x)f(y), x,y∈S;$$ $$∫_{S}f(xσ(y)t)dμ(t)−∫_{S}f(xyt)dμ(t) = 2f(x)f(y), x,y∈S,$$ where $...
On stability of the Cauchy functional equation in groupoids
We give some stability results for the functional equation $a(xy)=a(x)+a(y)$, where $a:G→E$, $G$ being a groupoid and $E$ a Banach space.
A simple proof of the Polar Decomposition Theorem
In this expository paper, we present a new and easier proof of the Polar Decomposition Theorem. Unlike in classical proofs, we do not use the square root of a positive matrix. The presented proof is accessible to a broad...
