Abstract

As a generalization of a result proved independently by Kurepa and Jurkat on additive functions on \({\mathbb R}\) satisfying certain functional equations, we determine multiadditive functions on \({\mathbb R}^n\) with a positive integer n greater than 1 satisfying certain functional equations similar to those considered in the one variable case.
