In this paper some results concerning the Cauchy functional equation, that is the functional equation f(x+y) = f(x) + f(y) in complex hermitian Banach *-algebras with an identity element are presented. As an application a generalization of Kurepa's extension of the Jordan-Neumann characterization of pre-Hilbert space is obtained.

There are a number of ad hoc regression models for the statistical analysis of lifetime data, but only a few examples exist in which physical considerations are used to characterize the model. In the present paper a complete characterization of a regression model is given by solving a functional equation recurring in the literature for the case of a fatigue problem. The result is that, if the lifetime for given values of the regressor variable and the regressor variable for a given lifetime are both Weibull variables (assumptions which are well founded, at least as approximations, from extreme-value theory in some concrete applications), there are only three families of (conditional) distribution for the lifetime (or for the regressor variable). This model is then applied to a practical problem for illustration.

The paper is devoted mainly to the study of the existence of solutions depending on two variables of a nonlinear integral equation of Volterra-Stieltjes type. The basic tool used in investigations is the technique of measures of noncompactness and Darbo’s fixed point theorem. The results obtained in the paper are applicable, in a particular case, to the nonlinear partial integral equations of fractional orders.
