    Problem 1: Determine all functions satisfying     for all positive integers and . idea and solution: We could attempt some functions. We find that constant function works, does not work. does not work. This prompt us, maybe the only possible solution is ? This is because the left and right hand side has different order, so only a function with zero order works. We could do some operation. For…
