Problem
Let be a function satisfying . Find all possible values of . Enter all the possible values, separated by commas.
Solution
Setting we get so or
Suppose Setting we get so for all Note that this function works, and in particular,
Now suppose Setting we get so for all
Replacing with , we get Then for all and Setting we get for all Note that this function works, and in particular,
Therefore, the possible values of are
