Abstract

In this paper, we prove the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of the Cauchy functional equation f(x+y) = f(x)+f(y) and of the Jensen functional equation $2f(\frac{x+y}{2})=f(x)+f(y)$ over the p-adic field ${\mathbb{Q}}_p$. The concept of Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability originated from the Th.M. Rassias' stability theorem that appeared in his paper: On the stability of the linear mapping in Banach spaces, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 72 (1978), 297-300.
