Summary.
Let \( f: G \times G \to {\Bbb C} \), where G denotes a 2-divisible abelian group and \( {\Bbb C} \) the set of complex numbers. The general solution of the functional equation¶¶f(x + t,y + t) + f(x - t,y) + f(x,y - t) = f(x - t,y - t) + f(x,y + t) + f(x + t,y)¶ for all x,y,t in G is determined. It is shown that the solution of this functional equation is of the form \( f(x,y) = B(x,y)+\varphi(x) + \psi(y) + \chi (x-y) \), where the map \( B : G \times G \to {\Bbb C} \) is biadditive and \( \varphi, \psi, \chi :G\to{\Bbb C} \) are arbitrary functions.
