Abstract

Let \(\mathbb {K}\) be either \(\mathbb {R}\) or \(\mathbb {C}\) and \(\alpha \in \mathbb {R}\). We determine the solutions \(f:\mathbb {R}^{3}\rightarrow \mathbb { K}\) of the following new parametric functional equation:

$$\begin{aligned}&f(x_{1}x_{2}+\alpha y_{1}z_{2}+\alpha y_{2}z_{1},x_{1}y_{2}+x_{2}y_{1}+\alpha z_{1}z_{2},x_{1}z_{2}+x_{2}z_{1}+y_{1}y_{2}) \\&\quad =f(x_{1},y_{1},z_{1})f(x_{2},y_{2},z_{2}),\ (x_{1},y_{1},z_{1}),(x_{2},y_{2},z_{2})\in \mathbb {R}^{3}, \end{aligned}$$

which results from the product of two numbers in a cubic free field. We equip \(\mathbb {R}^{3}\) with a binary operation to show that the non-zero solutions of this equation are monoid homomorphisms and we investigate our results to introduce and find the solutions of d’Alembert’s functional equations with endomorphisms.
