- Abstract
- We prove that the set P (H, resp.) of all positive pentagonal (hexagonal, resp.) numbers is an additive uniqueness set for the collection of multiplicative functions; if a multiplicative function f satisfies the equation f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b) for all a, b is an element of P (H, resp.), then f is the identity function.
