The problem of S. M. Ulam for approximately multiplicative mappings. (English) Zbl 0958.46022
The author discusses the celebrated Ulam’s problem of describing the functionals satisfying an $$\varepsilon$$-version of multplicative or additive law. The structure of a so-called ANMN-algebra, i.e., an algebra with “integrity”, that is, whose every approximately miltiplicative functional is near multiplicative.
