Summary.
Let K and \( \overline K \) be fields containing \( {\Bbb Q} \). We characterize pairs of additive functions \( f,g: K \to \overline K \) satisfying a functional equation¶¶\( g(x^{ln}) = f(x^l)^n \quad \text{respectively} \qquad g(x^{ln}) = Ax^{ln} + x^{ln-l}f(x^l) \),¶where \( n \in {\Bbb Z} \setminus \{0,1\} \), \( l\in {\Bbb N} \) and \( A \in K \).
