1          Introduction

The aim of this article is to prove an Neutrosophic version of the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability for the functional equation:

!

(A)

which is said to be a functional equation associated with inner product spaces. It was shown by Rassias [1] that the norm defined over a real vector space X is induced by an inner product if and only if for a fixed integer n ≥ 2 it follows

                                                                                               (B)

for all xi,...,xn X. Interesting new results concerning functional equations associated with inner product spaces have recently been obtained by Park et al. [2, 3] and Najati and Rassias [4] as well as for the fuzzy stability of a functional equation associated with inner product spaces [5].

Stability problem of a functional equation was first posed by Ulam [6] which was answered by Hyers [7] on approximately additive mappings and then generalized by Aoki [8] and Rassias [9] for additive mappings and linear mappings, respectively. Later there have been proved several new results on stability of various classes of functional equations in the Hyers-Ulam sense (cf. the following books and papers [10-18] and the references cited therein), as well as various fuzzy stability results concerning Cauchy, Jensen, quadratic and cubic functional equations. Furthermore some stability results concerning Jensen, cubic, mixed-type additive and cubic functional equations were investigated in the spirit of intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces, while the idea of intuitionistic fuzzy normed space was introduced and further studied.

In future studies on this subject, it is also possible to work with the idea of “Probabilistic metric space” using neutrosophic probability. In 1940, Ulam raised the following question. Under what conditions does there exists an additive mapping near an approximately addition mapping? The case of approximately additive functions was solved by Hyers under certain assumption. In 1978, a generalized version of the theorem of Hyers for approximately linear mapping was given by Rassias. The stability concept that was introduced and investigated by Rassias is called the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability. During the last decades, the stability problems of several functional equations have been extensively investigated by a number of authors. Neutrosophic set(NS) is a new version of the idea of the classical set which is defined by Smarandache [26]. The first world publication related to the concept of neutrosophy was published in 1998 and included in the literature [24].

2          Preliminaries

Throughout this section, assume that X,(Z,µ), and (Y,µ,ν,ω) are linear space, NNS, and Neutrosophic Banach space, respectively. For convenience, we use the following abbreviation for a given function f : X Y :

                              .                        (C)

We begin with the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias type theorem in NNS for the functional (A) which is said to be a functional equation associated with inner product spaces.

Theorem 3.1. Let φ : X Z be a function such that φ(2x) = αφ(x) for some real number α with 0 < |α| < 4. Suppose that an even function f : X Y with f(0) = 0 satisfies the inequality

µ(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≥ µ(φ(x1),t1) ∗ ··· ∗ µ(φ(xn),tn),

                                         ν(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ν(φ(x1),t1) ⋄ ··· ⋄ ν(φ(xn),tn)                   and

                                      ω(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ω(φ(x1),t1) ⊗ ··· ⊗ ω(φ(xn),tn)                                    (3.1.1)

for all x1,...,xn X and all t1,...,tn > 0. Then there exists a unique quadratic function Q : X Y such

that

,

and

                                                                                                            (3.1.2)

for all x X and t > 0, where

                                                                and

                                                       (3.1.3)

Proof. Put x1 = nx1,xi = nx2(i = 2,...,n),ti = t(i = 1,...,n) in (3.1.1), and, using the evenness of f, we obtain

,

and

for all x1,x2 X and t > 0. Interchanging x1 with x2 in (3.1.4) and using the evenness of f, we get

,

and

for all x1,x2 X and t > 0. It follows from (3.1.4) and (3.1.5) that

nf((n − 1)x1 + x2) + nf(x1 + (n − 1)x2)

µ+2f((n − 1)(x1 x2)) + 2(n − 1)f(x1 x2) µ(φ(nx1),t) ∗ µ(φ(nx2),t), nf(nx1) − nf(nx2),2nt

nf((n − 1)x1 + x2) + nf(x1 + (n − 1)x2) ν +2f((n − 1)(x1 x2)) + 2(n − 1)f(x1 x2) ν(φ(nx1),t) ⋄ ν(φ(nx2),t) and nf(nx1) − nf(nx2),2nt

 

(3.1.6)

nf(nx1) − nf(nx2),2nt

for all x1,x2 X and t > 0. Putting x1 = nx2,x2 = −nx2, xi = 0 (i = 3,...,n), ti = t (i = 1,...,n) in (3.1.1) and using the evenness of f, we obtain

                                                                                                    !

      µ               nf((n − 1)x1 + x2) + f(x1 + (n − 1)x2)                     ≥ µ(φ(nx1),t) ∗ µ(φ(nx2),t) ∗ µ(φ(0),t),

+2(n − 1)f(x1 x2) − f(nx1) − f(nx2),nt

                                                                                                    !

ν      nf((n − 1)x1 + x2) + f(x1 + (n − 1)x2)  ≤ ν(φ(nx1),t) ⋄ ν(φ(nx2),t) ⋄ ν(φ(0),t) +2(n − 1)f(x1 x2) − f(nx1) − f(nx2),nt

(3.1.7)

for all x1,x2 X and t¿0. Hence, we obtain from (3.1.6) and (3.1.7) that

 and

                                                                 (3.1.8)

for all x1,x2 X and t > 0. So

                            and

                                               (3.1.9)

for all x X and t > 0. Putting x1 = nx,xi = 0(i = 2,...,n),ti = t(i = 1,...,n) in (3.1.1), we obtain

µ(f(nx) − f((n − 1)x) − (2n − 1)f(x),nt) ≥ µ(φ(nx),t) ∗ µ(φ(0),t),

                                 ν (f(nx) − f((n − 1)x) − (2n − 1)f(x),nt) ≤ ν(φ(nx),t) ⋄ ν(φ(0),t)              and

                               ω (f(nx) − f((n − 1)x) − (2n − 1)f(x),nt) ≤ ω(φ(nx),t) ⊗ ω(φ(0),t)                            (3.1.10)

for all x X and t > 0. It follows from (3.1.9) and (3.1.10) that

,

and

                                                                  (3.1.11)

for all x X and t > 0. Letting x2 = −(n−1)x1 in (3.1.7) and replacing in the obtained inequality, we get

                                                                         !

                        f((n − 1)x) − f((n − 2)x)                  ′                                  µ(φ((n − 1)x),t) ∗ µ(φ(0),t),

            µ                                                                 µ (φ(nx),t)

−(2n − 3)f(x),nt

                                                                         !

                        f((n − 1)x) − f((n − 2)x)                  ′                                   ν(φ((n − 1)x),t) ⋄ ν(φ(0),t)        and

            ν                                                                 ν (φ(nx),t)

−(2n − 3)f(x),nt

                       (3.1.12)

for all x X and t > 0. It follows from (3.1.9), (3.1.10), (3.1.11) and (3.1.12) that

,

and

(3.1.13)

for all x X and t > 0. Applying (3.1.11) and (3.1.13), we obtain

and

(3.1.14)

for all x X and t > 0. Setting x1 = x2 = nx,xi = 0(i = 3,...,n),ti = t(i = 1,...,n) in (3.1.1), we

obtain

                          and

                                          (3.1.15)

for all x X and t > 0. It follows from (3.1.14) and (3.1.15) that

and

It follows that

and

                                                                                                                                                                     .              (3.1.17)

Define

and

                                                                                                                                                            .                       (3.1.18)

Then, by our assumption,

                          and                (3.1.19)

Replacing x by 2nx in (3.1.17) and applying (3.1.19), we get

,

and

Thus for each n > m, we have

,

and

(3.1.21)

where and

and δ > 0 be given. Since and  there exists some t0 > 0 such that. Since, there is some

n0 N such that for each n > m n0. It follows that

                         and

                                   (3.1.22)

for all t > t0. This shows that the sequence is Cauchy in (Y,µ,ν,ω). Since (Y,µ,ν,ω) is Neutrosophic Banach space,  converges to some point Q(x) ∈ Y . Thus, we can define a mapping

Q(x) : X Y such that. Moreover, if we put m = 0 in (3.1.21), we

get

,

                                                       ,       and

                                                                                                              (3.1.23)

Thus,

,

and

                                                                                                (3.1.24)

Now, we will show that Q is quadratic. Setting xi = 2mxi(i = 1,...,n) and in

(3.1.1), we obtain

and

(3.1.25)

for all x1,...,xn X and t > 0. Letting n → ∞ in (3.1.25), we obtain µ(∆Q(x1,...,xn),t) = 1(∆Q(x1,...,xn),t) = 0      and ω(∆Q(x1,...,xn),t) = 0 (3.1.26)

for all x1,...,xn X and all t > 0. This means that Q satisfies the functional (A) and so it is quadratic (see Lemma 2.2 of [4]).

Next, we approximate the difference between f and Q in Neutrosophic sense. By (3.1.24), we have

                                                                        and

                                             (3.1.27)

for every x X,t > 0 and large enough n. To prove the uniqueness of Q, assume that Qis another quadratic mapping from X to Y , which satisfies the required inequality. Then, for each x X and t > 0,

,

and

Since Q and Qare quadratic, we have

,

and

(3.1.29)

for all x X,t > 0 and n N. Since 0 ≤ α < 4 and , we get

,

and

(3.1.30)

Therefore µ(Q(x) − Q(x),t) = 1, ν(Q(x) − Q(x),t) = 0 and ω(Q(x) − Q(x),t) = 0 for all x X and t > 0. Hence Q(x) = Q(x) for all x X. This completes the proof of the theorem.

Theorem 3.2. Let φ : X Z be a function such that φ(2x) = αφ(x) for some real number α with 0 < |α| < 2. Suppose that an odd function f : X Y satisfies the inequality

µ(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≥ µ(φ(x1),t1) ∗ ··· ∗ µ(φ(xn),tn),

                                         ν(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ν(φ(x1),t1) ⋄ ··· ⋄ ν(φ(xn),tn)                   and

                                      ω(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ω(φ(x1),t1) ⊗ ··· ⊗ ω(φ(xn),tn)                                    (3.2.1)

for all x1,...,xn X and all t1,...,tn > 0. Then there exists a unique additive quadratic function A :

X Y such that

                                                            and                                         (3.2.2)

for all x X and t > 0, where

and

(3.2.3)

Proof. Put in (3.2.1) and using the oddness of f, we

obtain

,

and

for all. Interchanging x1 with in (3.2.4) and using the oddness of f, we get

,

and

for all. It follows from (3.2.4) and (3.2.5) that

,

 

and

(3.2.6)

for all. Setting in

(3.2.1) and using the oddness of f, we get

,

and

for all. It follows from (3.2.6) and (3.2.7) that

                                                (3.2.8)

for all x X and t > 0. Putting in (3.2.1), we obtain µ(f(n(x1 x1)) − f((n − 1)(x1 x1)) − f(x1 x1),nt) ≥ µ(φ(n(x1 x1 )),t) ∗ µ(φ(0),t), ν(f(n(x1 x1)) − f((n − 1)(x1 x1)) − f(x1 x1),nt) ≤ ν(φ(n(x1 x1 )),t) ⋄ ν(φ(0),t) and

for all. It follows from (3.2.8) and (3.2.9) that

,

and

for all x X and t > 0. Replacing x1 and and  in (3.2.10)respectively, we have

,

and

       .        (3.2.11)

It follows that

and

                                                                                                                                                                    .               (3.2.12)

Define

and

                                                                                                                                                      .                             (3.2.13)

Then, by the assumption,

        and              (3.2.14) Replacing x by 2nx in (3.2.12) and applying (3.2.14), we get

,

and

Thus for each n > m, we have

,

and

(3.2.16)

where and

and δ > 0 be given. Since and  there exists some t0 > 0 such that. Since, there is some

n0 N such that for each n > m n0. It follows that

                         and

                                   (3.2.17)

for all t > t0. This shows that the sequence is Cauchy in (Y,µ,ν,ω). Since (Y,µ,ν,ω) is Neutrosophic Banach space,  converges to some point A(x) ∈ Y . Thus, we can define a mapping

A(x) : X Y such that. Moreover, if we put m = 0 in (3.2.16), we

get

,

and

                                                       .                                                     (3.2.18)

Thus,

,

and

                                                                                                (3.2.19)

Next, we will show that A is Additive. Putting xi = 2mxi(i = 1,...,n) and in

(3.2.1), we obtain

and

(3.2.20)

for all x1,...,xn X and t > 0. Letting n → ∞ in (3.2.20), we obtain µ(∆A(x1,...,xn),t) = 1(∆A(x1,...,xn),t) = 0 and ω(∆A(x1,...,xn),t) = 0 (3.2.21) for all x1,...,xn X and all t > 0. This means that A satisfies the functional (A) and so it is additive (see Lemma 2.1 of [4]).

Next, we approximate the difference between f and A in Neutrosophic sense. For every x X,t > 0 and sufficiently large n, by (3.2.19), we have

                                                                        and

                                              (3.2.22)

To prove the uniqueness of A, assume that Ais another additive mapping from X to Y , which satisfies the required inequality. Then, for each x X and t > 0,

,

and

(3.2.23)

Therefore, by the additivity of A and A, we have

,

and

(3.2.24)

for all x X,t > 0 and n N. Since 0 ≤ α < 2 and , we get

,

(3.2.25)

Therefore µ(A(x) − A(x),t) = 1, ν(A(x) − A(x),t) = 0 and ω(A(x) − A(x),t) = 0 for all x X and t > 0. Hence A(x) = A(x) for all x X. This completes the proof of the theorem.

Theorem 3.3. Let φ : X Z be a function such that φ(2x) = αφ(x) for some real number α with 0 < |α| < 2. Suppose that a function f : X Y with f(0) = 0 satisfies the inequality

µ(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≥ µ(φ(x1),t1) ∗ ··· ∗ µ(φ(xn),tn),

                                         ν(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ν(φ(x1),t1) ⋄ ··· ⋄ ν(φ(xn),tn)                   and

                                      ω(∆f(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn) ≤ ω(φ(x1),t1) ⊗ ··· ⊗ ω(φ(xn),tn)                                    (3.3.1)

for all x1,...,xn X and all t1,...,tn > 0. Then there exists a unique quadratic function Q : X Y and a unique additive function A : X Y such that

,

and

(3.3.2)

for all x X and t > 0, where

 ,

           and

,

(3.3.3)

Proof. Passing to the even part fe and odd part f0 of f, we deduce from (3.3.1) that

µ(∆fe(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

µ(φ(x1),t1) ∗ µ(φ(−x1),t1) ∗ ··· ∗ µ(φ(xn),tn) ∗ µ(φ(−xn),tn), ν(∆fe(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

                                         ν(φ(x1),t1) ⋄ ν(φ(−x1),t1) ⋄ ··· ⋄ ν(φ(xn),tn) ⋄ ν(φ(−xn),tn)                and

ω(∆fe(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

 

ω(φ(x1),t1) ⊗ ω(φ(−x1),t1) ⊗ ··· ⊗ ω(φ(xn),tn) ⊗ ω(φ(−xn),tn)

On the other hand,

µ(∆f0(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

µ(φ(x1),t1) ∗ µ(φ(−x1),t1) ∗ ··· ∗ µ(φ(xn),tn) ∗ µ(φ(−xn),tn), ν(∆f0(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

ν(φ(x1),t1) ⋄ ν(φ(−x1),t1) ⋄ ··· ⋄ ν(φ(xn),tn) ⋄ ν(φ(−xn),tn)    and ω(∆f0(x1,...,xn),t1 + ··· + tn)

(3.3.4)

ω(φ(x1),t1) ⊗ ω(φ(−x1),t1) ⊗ ··· ⊗ ω(φ(xn),tn) ⊗ ω(φ(−xn),tn)

(3.3.5)

Applying the proofs of the Theorem 3.1 and 3.2, we get a unique quadratic function Q and a unique additive function A satisfying
