In this paper we provide a complete description of all bivariate polynomials that satisfy the Jacobi identity over infinite integral domains. Although this description depends on the characteristic of the domain, it turns out that all these polynomials are of degree at most one in each indeterminate.

[more ▼]The so-called generalized associativity functional equation G(J(x,y),z) = H(x,K(y,z)) has been investigated under various assumptions, for instance when the unknown functions G, H, J, and K are real, continuous, and strictly monotonic in each variable. In this note we investigate the following related problem: given the functions J and K, find every function F that can be written in the form F(x,y,z) = G(J(x,y),z) = H(x,K(y,z)) for some functions G and H. We show how this problem can be solved when any of the inner functions J and K has the same range as one of its sections.

[more ▼]The aim of the paper is to investigate the solutions of special inhomogeneous linear functional equations using spectral analysis in a translation invariant closed linear subspace of additive/multiadditive functions containing the restrictions of the solutions to finitely generated fields. The application of spectral analysis in some related varieties is a new and important trend in the theory of functional equations; especially they have successful applications in the case of homogeneous linear functional equations. The foundations of the theory can be found in Kiss and Varga (Aequat Math 88(1):151–162, 2014) and Kiss and Laczkovich (Aequat Math 89(2):301–328, 2015). We are going to adopt the main theoretical tools to solve some inhomogeneous problems due to Koclȩga-Kulpa and Szostok (Ann Math Sylesianae 22:27–40, 2008), see also Koclȩga-Kulpa and Szostok (Georgian Math J 16:725–736, 2009; Acta Math Hung 130(4):340–348, 2011). They are motivated by quadrature rules of approximate integration.

[more ▼]As a continuation of our previous work [2] the aim of the recent paper is to investigate the solutions of special inhomogeneous linear functional equations by using spectral synthesis in translation invariant closed linear subspaces of additive/multiadditive functions containing the restrictions of the solutions to finitely generated fields. The idea is based on the fundamental work of [5]. Using spectral analysis in some related varieties we can prove the existence of special solutions (automorphisms) of the functional equation but spectral synthesis allows us to describe the entire space of solutions on a large class of finitely generated fields. It is spanned by the so-called exponential monomials which can be given in terms of automorphisms of CC and differential operators. We apply the general theory to some inhomogeneous problems motivated by quadrature rules of approximate integration [8], see also [7, 9].

[more ▼]We introduce the concept of quasi-Lov\'asz extension as being a mapping$f\colon I^n\to\R$defined on a nonempty real interval$I$containing the origin and which can be factorized as$f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)=L(\varphi(x_1),\ldots,\varphi(x_n))$, where$L$is the Lov\'asz extension of a pseudo-Boolean function$\psi\colon\{0,1\}^n\to\R$(i.e., the function$L\colon\R^n\to\R$whose restriction to each simplex of the standard triangulation of$[0,1]^n$is the unique affine function which agrees with$\psi$at the vertices of this simplex) and$\varphi\colon I\to\R$is a nondecreasing function vanishing at the origin. These functions appear naturally within the scope of decision making under uncertainty since they subsume overall preference functionals associated with discrete Choquet integrals whose variables are transformed by a given utility function. To axiomatize the class of quasi-Lov\'asz extensions, we propose generalizations of properties used to characterize the Lov\'asz extensions, including a comonotonic version of modularity and a natural relaxation of homogeneity. A variant of the latter property enables us to axiomatize also the class of symmetric quasi-Lov\'asz extensions, which are compositions of symmetric Lov\'asz extensions with$1$-place nondecreasing odd functions.

[more ▼]In [6] the authors introduced the notion of quasi-polynomial function as being a mapping $f\colon X^n\to X$ defined and valued on a bounded chain $X$ and which can be factorized as $f(x_1,\ldots,x_n)=p(\varphi(x_1),\ldots,\varphi(x_n))$, where $p$ is a polynomial function (i.e., a combination of variables and constants using the chain operations $\wedge$ and $\vee$) and $\varphi$ is an order-preserving map. In the current paper we study this notion in the more general setting where the underlying domain and codomain sets are, possibly different, bounded distributive lattices, and where the inner function is not necessarily order-preserving. These functions appear naturally within the scope of decision making under uncertainty since, as shown in this paper, they subsume overall preference functionals associated with Sugeno integrals whose variables are transformed by a given utility function. To axiomatize the class of quasi-polynomial functions, we propose several generalizations of well-established properties in aggregation theory, as well as show that some of the characterizations given in [6] still hold in this general setting. Moreover, we investigate the so-called transformed polynomial functions (essentially, compositions of unary mappings with polynomial functions) and show that, under certain conditions, they reduce to quasi-polynomial functions.

[more ▼]We investigate the n-variable real functions G that are solutions of the Chisini functional equation F(x) = F(G(x),...,G(x)), where F is a given function of n real variables. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on F for the existence and uniqueness of solutions. When F is nondecreasing in each variable, we show in a constructive way that if a solution exists then a nondecreasing and idempotent solution always exists. We also provide necessary and sufficient conditions on F for the existence of continuous solutions and we show how to construct such a solution. We finally discuss a few applications of these results.

[more ▼]Two emergent properties in aggregation theory are investigated, namely horizontal maxitivity and comonotonic maxitivity (as well as their dual counterparts) which are commonly defined by means of certain functional equations. We completely describe the function classes axiomatized by each of these properties, up to weak versions of monotonicity in the cases of horizontal maxitivity and minitivity. While studying the classes axiomatized by combinations of these properties, we introduce the concept of quasi-polynomial function which appears as a natural extension of the well-established notion of polynomial function. We give further axiomatizations for this class both in terms of functional equations and natural relaxations of homogeneity and median decomposability. As noteworthy particular cases, we investigate those subclasses of quasi-term functions and quasi-weighted maximum and minimum functions, and provide characterizations accordingly.

Three main classes are discussed, namely order invariant functions, comparison meaningful functions on a single ordinal scale, and comparison meaningful functions on independent ordinal scales.
