Recently I taught short courses on functional equations at several
universities (Barcelona, Bern, Graz, Hamburg, Milan, Waterloo). My
aim was to introduce the most important equations and methods of
solution through actual (not artifi cial) applications which were
recent and with which I had something to do. Most of them happened
to be related to the social or behavioral sciences. All were
originally answers to questions posed by specialists in the
respective applied fields. Here I give a somewhat extended version
of these lectures, with more recent results and applications
included. As previous knowledge just the basic facts of calculus
and algebra are supposed. Parts where somewhat more (measure
theory) is needed and sketches of lengthier calcula tions are set
in fine print. I am grateful to Drs. J. Baker (Waterloo, Ont.), W.
Forg-Rob (Innsbruck, Austria) and C. Wagner (Knoxville, Tenn.) for
critical remarks and to Mrs. Brenda Law for care ful
computer-typing of the manuscript (in several versions). A note on
numbering of statements and references: The numbering of Lemmata,
Propositions, Theorems, Corollaries and (separately) formulae
starts anew in each section. If quoted in another section, the
section number is added, e.g. (2.10) or Theorem 1.2. References are
quoted by the last names of the authors and the last two digits of
the year, e.g. Daroczy-Losonczi 671. 1 1. An aggregation theorem
for allocation problems. Cauchy equation for single-and multiplace
functions. Two extension theorems."
