Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 126, No. 11, 3137-3143 (1998).

The author examines the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability [see D. H. Hyers, G. Isac and Th. M. Rassias, Stability of functional equations in several variables, Birkhäuser, Boston (1998)] of the Jensen functional equation and proves that a mapping \(f\) from a real normed space \(X\) into a real Banach space \(Y\) satisfying \(f(0)=0\) is additive if and only if \(\| 2f((x+y)/2) -f(x)- f(y)\|\to 0\) as \(\| x\| +\| y\|\to \infty\).
