Abstract

In this paper, we introduce and solve the following additive (${\rho}_1$, ${\rho}_2$)-functional inequality $${\Large{\parallel}}2f(\frac{x+y}{2})-f(x)-f(y){\Large{\parallel}}{\leq}{\parallel}{\rho}_1(f(x+y)+f(x-y)-2f(x)){\parallel}+{\parallel}{\rho}_2(f(x+y)-f(x)-f(y)){\parallel}$$ where ${\rho}_1$ and ${\rho}_2$ are fixed nonzero complex numbers with $\sqrt{2}{\mid}{\rho}_1{\mid}+{\mid}{\rho}_2{\mid}<1$. Using the fixed point method and the direct method, we prove the Hyers-Ulam stability of the additive (${\rho}_1$, ${\rho}_2$)-functional inequality (1) in complex Banach spaces.
