Abstract

:
In this paper, we find the solution of the following quadratic functional equation n 1 i < j n Q x i x j = i = 1 n Q j i x j ( n 1 ) x i , which is derived from the gravity of the n distinct vectors x 1 , , x n in an inner product space, and prove that the stability results of the A -quadratic mappings in μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebras without using lower semicontinuity and β -homogeneous property.

1. Introduction

A concept of stability in the case of homomorphisms between groups was formulated by S.M. Ulam [1] in 1940 in a talk at the University of Wisconsin. Let ( G 1 , ) be a group and let ( G 2 , , d ) be a metric group with the metric d ( · , · ) . Given ϵ > 0 , does there exist a δ ( ϵ ) > 0 such that if a mapping h : G 1 G 2 satisfies the inequality
d ( h ( x y ) , h ( x ) h ( y ) ) < δ
for all x , y G 1 , then there is a homomorphism H : G 1 G 2 with
d ( h ( x ) , H ( x ) ) < ϵ
for all x G 1 ?
The first affirmative answer to the question of Ulam was given by Hyers [2,3] for the Cauchy functional equation in Banach spaces as follows: Let X and Y be Banach spaces. Assume that f : X Y satisfies
f ( x + y ) f ( x ) f ( y ) ε
for all x , y X and for some ε 0 . Then, there exists a unique additive mapping T : X Y such that
f ( x ) T ( x ) ε
for all x X . A number of mathematicians were attracted to this result and stimulated to investigate the stability problems of various(functional, differential, difference, integral) equations in some spaces [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11].
In 2007, Nourouzi [12] presented probabilistic modular spaces related to the theory of modular spaces. Fallahi and Nourouzi [13,14] investigated the continuity and boundedness of linear operators defined between probabilistic modular spaces in the probabilistic sense. After then, Shen and Chen [15] following the idea of probabilistic modular spaces and the definition of fuzzy metric spaces based on George and Veeramani’s sense [16], applied fuzzy concept to the classical notions of modular spaces. Using Khamsi’s fixed point theorem in modular spaces [17], Wongkum and Kumam [18] proved the stability of sextic functional equations in fuzzy modular spaces equipped necessarily with lower semicontinuity and β -homogeneous property.
In a recent paper [11], Ulam stability of the following additive functional equation
1 i 1 < < i m n 1 k l ( i j , j { 1 , , m } ) n f j = 1 m x i j m + l = 1 n m x k l = n m + 1 n n m i = 1 n f ( x i ) .
was investigated in modular algebras without using the lower semicontinuity and Fatou preperty.
In the present paper, concerning the stability problem for the following functional equation
n 1 i < j n f x i x j = i = 1 n f j i x j ( n 1 ) x i
which is derived from the gravity of the n-distinct vectors in an inner product space, we investigate the stability problem for A -quadratic mappings in μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebras of the following functional equation without using lower semicontinuity and β -homogeneous property.

2. Preliminaries

Proposition 1.
Let X 1 , X 2 , , X n ( n 3 ) be distinct vectors in a finite n-dimensional Euclidean space E . Putting G : = i = 1 n X i n , the gravity of the n distinct vectors, then we get the following identity
1 i < j n X i X j 2 = n i = 1 n X i G 2 ,
which is equivalent to the equation
n 1 i < j n X i X j 2 = i = 1 n j i X j ( n 1 ) X i 2
for any distinct vectors X 1 , X 2 , , X n .
Employing the above equality (1), we introduce the new functional equation:
n 1 i < j n Q x i x j = i = 1 n Q j i x j ( n 1 ) x i
for a mapping Q : U V and for all vectors x 1 , , x n U , where U and V are linear spaces and n 3 is a positive integer.
From now on, we introduce some basic definitions of fuzzy modular ∗-algebras.
Definition 1.
[18] A triangular norm (briefly, t-norm) is a function : [ 0 , 1 ] × [ 0 , 1 ] [ 0 , 1 ] satisfies the following conditions:
 (1) 
is commutative, associative;
 (2) 
a 1 = a ;
 (3) 
a b c d , whenever a , b , c , d [ 0 , 1 ] with a b , c d .
Three common examples of the t-norm are (1) a M b = min { a , b } ; (2) a p b = a · b ; (3) a L b = max { a + b 1 , 0 } . For more example, we refer to [19]. Throughout this paper, we denote that
i = 1 n x i : = x 1 x n
for all x 1 , , x n [ 0 , 1 ] .
Definition 2.
[18] Let X be a complex vector space and a t-norm, and μ : X × ( 0 , ) [ 0 , 1 ] be a function.
(a) The triple ( X , μ , ) is said to be a fuzzy modular space if, for each x , y X and s , t > 0 and α , β [ 0 , ) with α + β = 1 ,
 (FM1) 
μ ( x , t ) > 0 ;
 (FM2) 
μ ( x , t ) = 1 for all t > 0 if and only if x = θ ;
 (FM3) 
μ ( x , t ) = μ ( x , t ) ;
 (FM4) 
μ ( α x + β y , s + t ) μ ( x , s ) μ ( y , t ) ;
 (FM5) 
the mapping t μ ( x , t ) is continuous at each fixed x X ;
(b) alternatively, if (FM-4) is replaced by
 (FM4-1) 
μ ( α x + β y , s + t ) μ ( x , s α ) μ ( y , t β ) , ( where α , β 0 ) ;
then we say that ( X , μ , ) is a convex fuzzy modular.
Now, we extend the properties (FM4) and (FM4-1) in real fields to complex scalar field acting on the space X, as follows:
(FM4)’
μ ( α x + β y , s + t ) μ ( x , s ) μ ( y , t ) ; for α , β C with | α | + | β | = 1 ,
(FM4-1)’
μ ( α x + β y , s + t ) μ ( x , s α ) μ ( y , t β ) for α , β C with | α | + | β | = 1 .
Next, we introduce the concept of fuzzy modular algebras based on the deifnition of fuzzy normed algebras [20,21]. If X is algebra with fuzzy modular μ subject to μ ( x y , s t ) μ ( x , s ) μ ( y , t ) for all x , y X and s , t ( 0 , ) , then we say ( X , μ , ) is called a fuzzy modular algebra. In addition, a fuzzy modular algebra X is a fuzzy modular ∗-algebra if the fuzzy modular μ satisfies μ ( z , t ) = μ ( z , t ) for all z X , t > 0 .
Example 1.
Let ( X , ρ ) be a modular ∗-algebra ([22]) and defined by a b : = a M b . For every t ( 0 , ) , define μ ( x , t ) = t t + ρ ( x ) for all x X . Then, ( X , μ , ) is a (convex) fuzzy modular ∗-algebra.
Definition 3.
(1). We say that ( X , μ , ) is β-homogeneous if, for every x X , t > 0 and λ R \ { 0 } ,
μ ( λ x , t ) = μ x , t | λ | β , where β ( 0 , 1 ] .
(2). Let n N . We say that ( X , μ , ) satisfies Δ n -condition if there exist κ n n such that
μ ( n x , t ) μ x , t κ n , x X .
Remark 1.
Let ( X , μ , ) be β-homogeneous for some fixed β ( 0 , 1 ] . Then, we observe that
μ ( 2 x , t ) = μ x , t 2 β μ x , t κ 2
for all x X and all κ 2 2 | 2 | β . Thus, β-homogeneous property implies Δ 2 -condition.
Example 2.
Let ρ : R R ,   μ : R × ( 0 , ) ( 0 , 1 ] be defined by ρ ( x ) = x 2 and μ ( x , t ) = t t + ρ ( x ) . Then, we can check that ( μ , M ) is a convex fuzzy modular on R but ( R , μ , M ) does not satisfy β-homogeneous property. Let κ 2 4 . Then,
μ ( 2 x , t ) = t t + ρ ( 2 x ) = μ x , t 4 μ x , t κ 2
for all x R . Thus, ( R , μ , ) satisfies Δ 2 -condition with κ 2 4 but is not β-homogeneous.
Definition 4.
Let ( X , μ , ) be a fuzzy modular space and { x n } be a sequence in X ρ .
 (1). 
{ x n } is said to be μ-convergent to a point x X if for any t > 0 ,
μ ( x x n , t ) 1
as n .
 (2). 
{ x n } is called μ-Cauchy if for each ε > 0 and each t > 0 , there exists n 1 such that, for all n n 1 and all p > 0 , we have μ ( x n + p x n ) > 1 ε .
 (3). 
If each Cauchy sequence is convergent, then the fuzzy modular space is said to be complete.

3. Fuzzy Modular Stability for A -Quadratic Mappings

First of all, we find out the general solution of (1.3) in the class of mappings between vector spaces.
Theorem 1.
Let U and V be vector spaces. A mapping Q : U V satisfies the functional Equation (2) for each positive integer n > 2 if and only if there exists a symmetric biadditive mapping B : U × U V such that Q ( x ) = B ( x , x ) for all x U .
Proof. 
Let Q satisfy Equation (2). One finds that Q ( 0 ) = 0 and Q ( a x ) = a 2 Q ( x ) by changing ( x , y ) to ( 0 , 0 ) and ( x , 0 ) in (3), respectively, where a : = n 1 is a positive integer with a 2 . Putting x 1 : = x , x 2 : = y and x i : = 0 for all i = 3 , , n in (2), we get
Q ( x a y ) + Q ( a x y ) + ( a 1 ) Q ( x + y ) = ( a + 1 ) Q ( x y ) + ( a 2 1 ) [ Q ( x ) + Q ( y ) ]
for all x , y U . Using [23] [Theorem 1], we obtain that Q is a generalized polynomial map of degree at most 4. Therefore,
Q ( x ) = A 0 + A 1 ( x ) + A 2 ( x , x ) + A 3 ( x , x , ) + A 4 ( x , x , x , x )
for all x U , where A k : U k V is a k-additive symmetric map ( k = 1 , , 4 ) and A 0 V . Since a is an integer, we get
( a 2 1 ) A 0 + ( a 2 a ) A 1 ( x ) + ( a 2 a 3 ) A 3 ( x , x , x ) + ( a 2 a 4 ) A 4 ( x , x , x , x ) = 0
for all x U by Q ( a x ) = a 2 Q ( x ) . This yields that Q ( x ) = A 2 ( x , x ) for all x U . □
Let A be a complex ∗-algebra with unit and let M be a left A -module. We call a mapping Q : M A an A -quadratic mapping if both relations Q ( a x ) = a Q ( x ) a and Q ( x + y ) + Q ( x y ) = 2 Q ( x ) + 2 Q ( y ) are fulfilled for all a A , x , y M [24]. For the sake of convenience, we define the following:
D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) : = n 1 i < j n f ( u x i u x j ) i = 1 n u f j i x j ( n 1 ) x i u , ε i ( x ) : = ε ( 0 , , 0 , x i t h , 0 , , 0 ) , J : = { 1 , , n 1 } × { 1 , , n } , if n > 3 , { 2 } × { 1 , 2 , 3 } if n = 3 .
In addition, let be defined by minimum t-norm and A M be the set of all mapping from M to A , Q A ( M , A ) be the set of all A -quadratic mappings from M to A .
Now, we present a stability of the A -quadratic mapping concerning Equation (2) in μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebras without using β -homogeneous properties.
Theorem 2.
Let ( A , μ , ) be μ-complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebra with norm · and M be a left A -module, ( X , μ , ) fuzzy modular space, U ( A ) the unitary group of A . Assume that there exist two mappings f A M and ε X M n such that
μ ( D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) , t ) μ ( ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , t ) , μ ε ( ( n 1 ) x 1 , , ( n 1 ) x n ) , t μ ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , t β
for all ( x 1 , , x n ) X n , u U ( A ) , where 2 2 β < ( n 1 ) 2 , and either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M . Then, there exists a unique mapping Q Q A ( M , A ) that satisfies Equation (2) and the inequality
μ f ( x ) + ( n 1 ) f ( 0 ) 2 Q ( x ) , t Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 t 2 β
for all x M and t > 0 , where
Φ ( x , t ) : = max ( i , j ) J { μ ε j ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 t 6 μ ε i ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) } .
Proof. 
Define a mapping g : M A by g ( x ) : = f ( x ) + ( n 1 ) f ( 0 ) 2 for all x M . Then, for each x M , the following equation is obtained:
g ( ( n 1 ) x ) ( n 1 ) 2 g ( x ) = D u f j ( x ) + n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 n [ D 1 f i ( x ) D 1 f i + 1 ( x ) ]
for all i = 1 , , n 1 and for all j = 1 , , n , where
D 1 f i ( x ) = D 1 f ( 0 , , 0 , x i t h , 0 , , 0 ) .
For each fixed ( i , j ) J , one obtains from k = 1 m 1 + 2 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 n ) ( n 1 ) 2 k 1 that
μ g ( x ) g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , t μ k = 1 m ( n 1 ) 2 g ( ( n 1 ) k 1 x ) g ( ( n 1 ) k x ) ( n 1 ) 2 k , k = 1 m t 2 k k = 1 m ( μ ( ε j ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 k t 3 · 2 k β k 1 ) μ ε i ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 k n t 3 · 2 k β k 1 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 k n t 3 · 2 k β k 1 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) ) = μ ε j ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 t 6 μ ε i ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 )
for all t > 0 and x M , m N . Then, it follows from the above inequality that
μ g ( x ) g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , t Φ ( x , t )
for all x M and t > 0 . Therefore, we prove from this relation that, for any integers m , p ,
μ g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m g ( ( n 1 ) m + p x ) ( n 1 ) 2 ( m + p ) , t μ g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) g ( ( n 1 ) p · ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) p , ( n 1 ) 2 m t Φ ( ( n 1 ) m x , ( n 1 ) 2 m t ) Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 β m t
for all t > 0 , x M . Since the right-hand side of the above inequality tends to 1 as m , the sequence { g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m } is μ -Cauchy and thus converges in A . Hence, we may define a mapping Q : M A as
Q ( x ) : = μ lim m g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m lim m μ Q ( x ) g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , t = 1
for all x M and t > 0 . In addition, we claim that the mapping Q satisfies (2). For this purpose, we calculate the following inequality:
μ D u Q ( x 1 , , x ) L , t 1 i < j n ( μ Q ( u x i u x j ) g ( ( n 1 ) m ( u x i u x j ) ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , L t 2 i + j n μ u Q ( j = 1 n x j n x i ) u u g ( ( n 1 ) m ( j = 1 n x j n x i ) ) u ( n 1 ) 2 m , L t 2 i + j ) μ ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , ( n 1 ) 2 β m · L t 2 i + j
for all x M , u U ( A ) , m N , t > 0 , where L : = n 3 n 2 + 2 n + 2 2 . This means that D u Q ( x 1 , , x n ) = 0 for all x 1 , x n M , u U ( A ) . Hence, the mapping Q satisfies (2) and so Q ( ( n 1 ) x ) = ( n 1 ) 2 Q ( x ) for all x M . It follows that
μ Q ( x ) g ( x ) , t μ ( Q ( ( n 1 ) x ) ( n 1 ) 2 g ( ( n 1 ) m + 1 x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m + 2 + k = 1 m ( n 1 ) 2 g ( ( n 1 ) k 1 x ) g ( ( n 1 ) k x ) ( n 1 ) 2 k , t ) Φ ( n 1 ) x , ( n 1 ) 2 t 2 k = 1 m Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 k t 2 β k 1 Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 2 β t
for all x M , t > 0 .
To prove the uniqueness, let Q be another mapping satisfying (2) and
μ g ( x ) Q ( x ) , t Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 2 β t
for all x M . Thus, we have
μ 1 2 Q ( x ) Q ( x ) , t μ Q ( ( n 1 ) m x ) g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , t μ g ( ( n 1 ) m x ) Q ( ( n 1 ) m x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m , t Φ x , ( n 1 ) 2 m 2 β t
for all x M , t > 0 . Taking the limit as m , then we conclude that Q ( x ) = Q ( x ) for all x M .
Under the assumption that either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M , the quadratic mapping Q satisfies Q ( t x ) = t 2 Q ( x ) for all x M and for all t R by the same reasoning as the proof of [25]. That is, Q is R -quadratic. Let P : = n 4 2 n 3 + 3 n 2 3 n + 14 4 . Putting x 1 : = ( n 1 ) k x and x i : = 0 for all i = 2 , , n in (4) and dividing the resulting inequality by ( n 1 ) 2 k , we have
μ 1 P n ( n 1 ) Q ( u x ) u Q ( ( n 1 ) x ) u ( n 1 ) u Q ( x ) u , 4 t μ Q ( u x ) g ( u ( n 1 ) k x ) ( n 1 ) 2 k , P t n ( n 1 ) μ u Q ( ( n 1 ) x ) u u g ( λ · ( n 1 ) k x ) ( n 1 ) 2 k u , P t μ u Q ( x ) u u g ( ( n 1 ) k x ) ( n 1 ) 2 k u , P t n ( n 1 ) μ D u f ( ( n 1 ) k x , 0 , , 0 ) , ( n 1 ) 2 k P t μ f ( 0 ) , 4 ( n 1 ) 2 k P t ( n 2 ) ( n 1 ) n ( n + 1 )
for all x M , u U ( A ) , t > 0 . Taking k and using the evenness of Q, we obtain that Q ( u x ) = u Q ( x ) u for all x M and for each u U ( A ) . The last relation is also true for u = 0 .
Now, let a be a nonzero element in A and K a positive integer greater than 4 a . Then, we have a K < 1 4 < 1 2 3 . By [26] [Theorem 1], there exist three elements u 1 , u 2 , u 3 U ( A ) such that 3 a K = u 1 + u 2 + u 3 . Thus, we calculate in conjunction with [27] [Lemma 2.1] that
Q ( a x ) = Q K 3 3 a K x = K 3 2 Q ( u 1 x + u 2 x + u 3 x ) = K 3 2 B ( u 1 x + u 2 x + u 3 x , u 1 x + u 2 x + u 3 x ) = K 3 2 ( u 1 + u 2 + u 3 ) B ( x , x ) ( u 1 + u 2 + u 3 ) = K 3 2 3 a K Q ( x ) 3 a K = a Q ( x ) a
for all a A ( a 0 ) and for all x M . Thus, the unique R -quadratic mapping Q is also A -quadratic, as desired. This completes the proof. □
Corollary 1.
Let ( A , ρ ) be a ρ-complete convex modular ∗-algebra with norm · and M be a left A -module, U ( A ) the unitary group of A . Assume that there exist two mappings f A M and ε R M n such that
ρ ( D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) ) ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , ε ( ( n 1 ) x 1 , , ( n 1 ) x n ) β ε ( x 1 , , x n )
for all ( x 1 , , x n ) X n , u U ( A ) , where 2 2 β < ( n 1 ) 2 , and either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M . Then, there exists a unique mapping Q Q A ( M , A ) which satisfies Equation (2) and the inequality
ρ f ( x ) + ( n 1 ) f ( 0 ) 2 Q ( x ) 12 β ( n 1 ) 4 min ( i , j ) J { max { ε j ( x ) , ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) n ε i ( x ) , ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) n ε i + 1 ( x ) } }
for all x M .
Proof. 
Let X = R with the fuzzy modular μ : X × ( 0 , ) R as
μ ( z , t ) = t t + | z |
for all z R , t > 0 . In addition, define the following convex fuzzy modular μ as
μ ( y , t ) = t t + ρ ( y ) ,
for all y M , t > 0 . As noted in Example 1, ( A , μ , M ) is a μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebra and ( R , μ . M ) is a fuzzy modular space. The result follows from the fact that (4) and (5) are equivalent to (7) and (8), respectively. □
Corollary 2.
Let ( A , · ) be a Banach ∗-algebra and M be a left A -module and θ > 0 , p ( 0 , 2 log λ 2 ) . Assume that there exists a mapping f A M such that
D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) θ ( x 1 p + + x n p )
for all ( x 1 , , x n ) X n , u U ( A ) , and either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M . Then, there exists a unique quadratic mapping Q Q A ( M , A ) which satisfies Equation (2) and the inequality
f ( x ) + ( n 1 ) f ( 0 ) 2 Q ( x ) 12 ( n 1 ) 4 p ε θ x p
for all x M , where ε is a real number defined by
ε : = min n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 n 1 | i = 1 , , n 1 , i f n > 3 , 1 , i f n = 3 .
Proof. 
Letting ε ( x 1 , , x n ) : = θ ( x 1 p + + x n p ) , β : = ( n 1 ) p and applying Corollary 1, we obtain the desired result, as claimed. □
Next, we provide an alternative stability theorem of Theorem 2 equipped with Δ n 1 -condition in μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebras.
Theorem 3.
Let ( A , μ , ) be a μ-complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebra with Δ n 1 -condition and norm · and M be a A -left module, ( X , μ , ) fuzzy modular space. Assume that there exist two mappings f A M and ε X M n such that
μ ( D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) , t ) μ ( ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , t ) , μ ε x 1 n 1 , , x n n 1 , t μ ( ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , γ t )
for all ( x 1 , , x n ) X n , u U ( A ) , where ( n 1 ) 2 γ > 2 κ n 1 4 , and either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M . Then, there exists a unique mapping Q Q A ( M , A ) which satisfies Equation (2) and the inequality
μ ( f ( x ) Q ( x ) , t ) Ψ x , ( n 1 ) t 2 κ n 1
for all x M , t > 0 , where
Ψ ( x , t ) = max ( i , j ) J { μ ε j ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 t 6 κ n 1 2 μ ε i ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 κ n 1 2 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 κ n 1 2 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) } .
Proof. 
Letting ( x 1 , , x n ) : = ( 0 , , 0 ) in (9) and using it, we get
μ ( ε ( 0 , , 0 ) , t ) μ ( ε ( 0 , , 0 ) , γ m t )
for all t > 0 , m N . Thus, ε ( 0 , , 0 ) = 0 and
μ n ( n 1 ) 2 2 f ( 0 ) , t = μ ( D u δ ( 0 , , 0 ) , t ) μ ( ε ( 0 , , 0 ) , t ) = 1
for all t > 0 , which implies f ( 0 ) = 0 . From Equation (6), we get the following equality
f ( x ) ( n 1 ) 2 f x n 1 = D 1 f j x n 1 + n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 n D 1 f i x n 1 D 1 f i + 1 x n 1
for all ( i , j ) J . Using (11) and Δ n 1 -condition of μ , one gets
μ f ( x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) m , t μ k = 1 m ( n 1 ) 4 k 2 ( n 1 ) 2 k f x ( n 1 ) k ( n 1 ) 2 f x ( n 1 ) k , k = 1 m t 2 k k = 1 m ( μ ε j ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 2 κ n 1 4 k · κ n 1 2 t 3 μ ε i ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 2 κ n 1 4 k · κ n 1 2 n t 3 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 2 κ n 1 4 k κ n 1 2 n t 3 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) ) = μ ε j ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 t 6 κ n 1 2 μ ε i ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 κ n 1 2 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) μ ε i + 1 ( x ) , γ ( n 1 ) 2 n t 6 κ n 1 2 ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 )
for all x M , t > 0 , ( i , j ) J . This relation leads to
μ f ( x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) m , t Ψ ( x , t )
for all x M and t > 0 . Now, replacing x by x ( n 1 ) m in (12), we have
μ ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) m ( n 1 ) 2 m + 2 p f x ( n 1 ) m + p , t μ f x ( n 1 ) m ( n 1 ) 2 p f x ( n 1 ) m + p , t κ n 1 2 m Ψ x ( n 1 ) m , t κ n 1 2 m Ψ x , γ κ n 1 2 m t
which converges to zero as m . Thus, { ( n 1 ) 2 m f ( x / ( n 1 ) m ) } is μ -Cauchy for all x M , and so it is μ -convergent in A since the space A is μ -complete. Thus, we may define a mapping Q : M A as
Q ( x ) : = μ lim m ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) m lim m ( n 1 ) 2 m μ Q ( x ) f x ( n 1 ) m , t = 1
for all x M and all t > 0 . Using Δ n 1 -condition and convexity of μ , we find the following inequality
μ f ( x ) Q ( x ) , t μ f ( x ) ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) 2 m , ( n 1 ) t 2 κ n 1 μ ( n 1 ) 2 m f x ( n 1 ) 2 m Q ( x ) , ( n 1 ) t 2 κ n 1 ) Ψ x , ( n 1 ) t 2 κ n 1
for all x M , t > 0 and for enough large m N . By the similar way of the proof of Theorem 2, we get Q is A -quadratic functional equation.
To prove the uniqueness, let T be another A -quadratic mapping satisfying (10). Then, we get T ( ( n 1 ) m x ) = ( n 1 ) 2 m T ( x ) for all x M and all m N . Thus, we have
μ T ( x ) Q ( x ) 2 , t μ T x ( n 1 ) m f x ( n 1 ) m , t κ n 1 2 m μ f x ( n 1 ) m Q x ( n 1 ) m , t κ n 1 2 m Ψ x ( n 1 ) m , ( n 1 ) t κ n 1 2 m + 1 Ψ x , ( n 1 ) γ m t κ n 1 2 m + 1
Taking the limit as m , then we conclude that T ( x ) = Q ( x ) for all x M . This completes the proof. □
Corollary 3.
Let ( A , ρ ) be a ρ-complete convex modular ∗-algebra with Δ n 1 -condition and norm · . Assume that there exist two mappings f A M and ε R M n such that
ρ ( D u f ( x 1 , , x n ) ) ε ( x 1 , , x n ) , ε x 1 n 1 , x n n 1 1 γ ε ( x 1 , , x n )
for all ( x 1 , , x n ) X n , u U ( A ) , where γ ( n 1 ) 2 > 2 κ n 1 4 and either f is measurable or f ( t x ) is continuous in t R for each fixed x M . Then, there exists a unique mapping Q Q A ( M , A ) which satisfies Equation (2) and the inequality
ρ ( f ( x ) Q ( x ) ) 12 κ n 1 3 γ ( n 1 ) 3 min ( i , j ) J { max { ε j ( x ) , ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) n ε i ( x ) , ( n 2 ( i + 1 ) n + 1 ) n ε i + 1 ( x ) } }
for all x M .

4. Conclusions

We have studied a quadratic functional equation from the gravity of the n-distinct vectors and obtained the solution of the quadratic functional equation and investigated the stability results of a A -quadratic mapping on μ -complete convex fuzzy modular ∗-algebras without using β -homogeneous property and lower semicontinuity. Furthermore, as corollaries, we have presented the stability results of the A -quadratic mapping in ρ -complete convex modular ∗-algebras and Banach ∗-algebras, respectively.
