Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability
The stability problem of functional equations originated from a question of Stanislaw Ulam, posed in 1940, concerning the stability of group homomorphisms. In the next year, Donald H. Hyers gave a partial affirmative answer to the question of Ulam in the context of Banach spaces, that was the first significant breakthrough and a step toward more solutions in this area. Since then, a large number of papers have been published in connection with various generalizations of Ulam’s problem and Hyers’s theorem. In 1978, Themistocles M. Rassias succeeded in extending the Hyers’s theorem by considering an unbounded Cauchy difference.[1][2] This exciting result of Rassias attracted several mathematicians worldwide who began to be stimulated to investigate the stability problems of functional equations.
By regarding a large influence of S. M. Ulam, D. H. Hyers, and Th. M. Rassias on the study of stability problems of functional equations, the stability phenomenon proved by Th. M. Rassias led to the development of what is now known as Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability[3][4] of functional equations.
