1 Introduction and Preliminaries

Katsaras1 defined a fuzzy norm on a vector space to construct a fuzzy vector topologicalstructure on the space Some mathematicians have defined fuzzy norms on a vector spacefrom various points of view2 4 In particular, Bag and Samanta 5, following Cheng andMordeson6, gave an idea of fuzzy norm in such a manner that the corresponding fuzzymetric is of Kramosil and Mich´alek type7 They established a decomposition theorem of afuzzy norm into a family of crisp norms and investigated some properties of fuzzy normedspaces8

We use the definition of fuzzy normed spaces given in5,9,10 to investigate a fuzzyversion of the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability for the functional equation

Definition 1.1see 5,9 11 Let X be a real vector space A function N : X × R → 0, 1 is called a fuzzy norm on X if for all x, y ∈ X and all s, t ∈ R,

The pairX, N is called a fuzzy normed vector space.

The properties of fuzzy normed vector spaces and examples of fuzzy norms are given

in9,12

Definition 1.2see 5,9 11 Let X, N be a fuzzy normed vector space A sequence {x n} in

X is said to be convergent or converge if there exists an x ∈ X such that lim n→ ∞N x n − x, t  1 for all t > 0 In this case, x is called the limit of the sequence {x n } and we denote it by N-

limn→ ∞x n  x.

A sequence{x n } in X is called Cauchy if for each ε > 0 and each t > 0 there exists an

n0∈ N such that for all n ≥ n0and all p > 0, we have Nx n p − x n, t  > 1 − ε.

It is wellknown that every convergent sequence in a fuzzy normed vector space is

Cauchy If each Cauchy sequence is convergent, then the fuzzy norm is said to be complete and the fuzzy normed vector space is called a fuzzy Banach space.

We say that a mapping f : X → Y between fuzzy normed vector spaces X and Y

is continuous at a point x0 ∈ X if for each sequence {x n } converging to x0 in X, then the

sequence{fx n } converges to fx0 If f : X → Y is continuous at each x ∈ X, then f : X →

Y is said to be continuous on Xsee 8

In 1940, Ulam 13 gave a talk before the Mathematics Club of the University ofWisconsin in which he discussed a number of unsolved problems Among these was thefollowing question concerning the stability of homomorphisms

We are given a group G and a metric group Gwith metric ρ ·, · Given ε > 0, does there

exist a δ > 0 such that if f : G → Gsatisfies ρ fxy, fxfy < δ for all x, y ∈ G, then a

homomorphism h : G → Gexists with ρ fx, hx < ε for all x ∈ G?

By now an affirmative answer has been given in several cases, and some interesting

variations of the problem have also been investigated We will call such an f : G → G an

approximate homomorphism.

In 1941, Hyers14 considered the case of approximately additive mappings f : E →

E, where E and Eare Banach spaces and f satisfies the Hyers inequality

exists for all x ∈ E and that L : E → Eis the unique additive mapping satisfying

for all x ∈ E.

No continuity conditions are required for this result, but if ftx is continuous in the real variable t for each fixed x ∈ E, then L : E → EisR-linear, and if f is continuous at a single point of E, then L : E → Eis also continuous

Hyers’ theorem was generalized by Aoki15 for additive mappings and by Th M.Rassias16 for linear mappings by considering an unbounded Cauchy difference The paper

of Th M Rassias16 has provided a lot of influence in the development of what we call

generalized Hyers-Ulam stability or as Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of functional equations A

generalization of the Th M Rassias theorem was obtained by G˘avrut¸a17 by replacing theunbounded Cauchy difference by a general control function in the spirit of Th M Rassias’approach

In 1982–1994, a generalization of the Hyers’s result was proved by J M Rassias He

introduced the following weaker condition:

f

x  y− fx − fy  ≤ θx pyq 1.5

for all x, y ∈ E, controlled by a product of different powers of norms, where θ ≥ 0 and real numbers p, q, r :  p  q / 1, and retained the condition of continuity of ftx in t ∈ R for each fixed x ∈ E Besides he investigated that it is possible to replace ε in the above Hyers

inequality by a nonnegative real-valued function such that the pertinent series converges andother conditions hold and still obtain stability results In all the cases investigated in these

results, the approach to the existence question was to prove asymptotic type formulas of the

Theorem 1.3 see 18–23 Let X be a real normed linear space and Y a real Banach space Assume

that f : X → Y is an approximately additive mapping for which there exist constants θ ≥ 0 and

p, q ∈ R such that r  p  q / 1 and f satisfies the Cauchy-Rassias inequality

f

x  y− fx − fy  ≤ θx pyq 1.7

for all x, y ∈ X Then there exists a unique additive mapping L : X → Y satisfying

f x − Lx ≤ θ|2r− 2|x r 1.8

for all x ∈ X If, in addition, f : X → Y is a mapping such that ftx is continuous in t ∈ R for each

fixed x ∈ X, then L : X → Y is an R-linear mapping.

The functional equation

quadratic functional equation was proved by Skof24 for mappings f : X → Y, where X

is a normed space and Y is a Banach space Cholewa25 noticed that the theorem of Skof is

still true if the relevant domain X is replaced by an Abelian group Czerwik26 proved thegeneralized Hyers-Ulam stability of the quadratic functional equation The stability problems

of several functional equations have been extensively investigated by a number of authorsand there are many interesting results concerning this problemsee 27–69

In70, Jun and Kim considered the following cubic functional equation:

f

2x  y f2x − y 2fx  y 2fx − y 12fx. 1.10

It is easy to show that the function f x  x3 satisfies the functional1.10, which is called

a cubic functional equation and every solution of the cubic functional equation is said to be a

cubic mapping.

Let X be a set A function d : X × X → 0, ∞ is called a generalized metric on X if d

satisfies

1 dx, y  0 if and only if x  y;

2 dx, y  dy, x for all x, y ∈ X;

3 dx, z ≤ dx, y  dy, z for all x, y, z ∈ X.

We recall a fundamental result in fixed point theory

Theorem 1.4 see 71,72 Let X, d be a complete generalized metric space and let J : X → X

be a strictly contractive mapping with Lipschitz constant L < 1 Then for each given element x ∈ X,

2 the sequence {J n x } converges to a fixed point y∗of J;

3 y∗is the unique fixed point of J in the set Y  {y ∈ X | dJ n0x, y  < ∞};

4 dy, y∗ ≤ 1/1 − Ldy, Jy for all y ∈ Y.

In 1996, Isac and Th M Rassias73 were the first to provide applications of stabilitytheory of functional equations for the proof of new fixed point theorems with applications Byusing fixed point methods, the stability problems of several functional equations have beenextensively investigated by a number of authorssee 74–78

This paper is organized as follows InSection 2, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulamstability of the additive-quadratic-cubic functional1.1 in fuzzy Banach spaces for an oddcase InSection 3, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the additive-quadratic-cubic functional1.1 in fuzzy Banach spaces for an even case.

Throughout this paper, assume that X is a vector space and that Y, N is a fuzzy

Banach space

2 Generalized Hyers-Ulam Stability of the Functional Equation  1.1 :

An Odd Case

One can easily show that an odd mapping f : X → Y satisfies 1.1 if and only if the odd

mapping mapping f : X → Y is an additive-cubic mapping, that is,

f

It was shown in79, Lemma 2.2 that gx : f2x − 2fx and hx : f2x − 8fx are cubic and additive, respectively, and that fx  1/6gx − 1/6hx.

One can easily show that an even mapping f : X → Y satisfies 1.1 if and only if the

even mapping f : X → Y is a quadratic mapping, that is,

Using the fixed point method, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the

functional equation Df x, y  0 in fuzzy Banach spaces, an odd case.

for all x ∈ X and all t > 0.

Consider the set

Now we consider the linear mapping J : S → S such that

for all x ∈ X and all t > 0 So dg, Jg ≤ 5L/8.

ByTheorem 1.4, there exists a mapping C : X → Y satisfying the following.
