Wouldn't you have for x=0, f(0)^2f(1)=0 => f(0) and/or f(1) =0. But we also have if x=1 f(1)^2f(0)=1 which is not possible because it should be equal to zero so no such function from C to C?

Didn't expect this to happen, but I just assumed f(x)=mx+b. Then after substituting and multiplying out, it's obvious that b=0 because there are no constant terms on the right side. Then solving for m you arrive at m=[(x+1)/[x(1-x))]]^(1/3). Substituting your values for m and b back into f(x) gives you [x^2(x+1)/(1-x)]^(1/3) which was the answer in the video.

I did not get that inverse trick :(. But when you got the system of equations I solved it by myself. I wrote the first equation as (f)^2 * fg = L (1) Where L is just the identity function, g(x) = (1 - x)/(1 + x), fg means composition and f * g product And we have (fL)^2 * fgL = L Then the substitution x = g(x) is equivalent to "substituing" L ----) g, then we get (fg)^2 * fgg = g And using the fact gg = L, we get (fg)^2 * f = g f * (fg)^2 = g (2) And instead of dividing I think is better to square (1) as you did and then substituing (2) in the new expression, that is: ( (f)^2 * fg )^2 = L ^2 (f)^4 * (fg)^2 = L^2 (f)^3 * f * (fg)^2 = L^2 (f)^3 * g = L^2 then f = cube-root( L^2/g ) Doing it this way It is only necessary to assume that x =/= -1 (because of g) And it makes clearer that this is true for any g such that gg = L I really liked this equation. I would love to see more functional equations here :). Thanks for the video !!!

If (1-y)/((1+y)=f^(-1)(y) -> f((1-y)/(1+y))=y. You could replace y with x. But x is something different. So, your conclusion at 2:51 is not correct. y in this sense has nothing to do with f(x). You let you lead yourself into the woods by an inept choice of nomenclature. I think this is homemade. Let x=0 -> (f(0))^2 * f(1) = 0. Let x=1 -> (f(1))^2 * f(0) = 1. Contradiction. -> There is no solution.

If you plug in x=0 to the equation you get f(0)^2 * f(1) = 0, meaning at least one of f(0) and f(1) is 0. If you plug in x=1 you get f(1)^2 * f(0) = 1. From plugging in x=0 we know that f(1)^2 * f(0) = 0. Thus we have shown 0 = 1. Doesn't this mean the function f doesn't exist, at least for x=0 or x=1?

Not just x = 1 is not allowed, but x = 0 is not allowed either for the same reason. Also, x = -1 is obviously not allowed, since (1 - x)/(1 + x) does not exist for x = -1. However, the solution has removable singularities at x = -1 and x = 0, but not at x = 0, which is a branch point and a pole simultaneously.

Let * denote the function composition operator, and g : R\{-1} -> R\{-1} be x |-> g(x) = (1 - x)/(1 + x). Notice that g is a bijection, and that g*g : R\{-1} -> R\{-1} has g*g = x |-> x because g(g(x)) = x for all x elements of dom(g), which you can find just by experimenting. This experiment may be motivated by the general knowledge that rational function with integer coefficients are, in general, cyclic. As -1 is not an element of dom(g) nor of image(g), it is not an element of dom(f). Additionally, note that 0 is an element of dom(f) iff 1 is an element of dom(f). This is because f(x)^2·f(g(x)) = x for all x elements of dom(f) implies f(1)^2·f(g(1)) = f(1)^2·f(0) = 1, so that f(0) = 1/f(1)^2. Therefore, f(0) exists iff f(1) exists. Also, f(x)^2·f(g(x)) = x for all x elements of dom(f) implies f(0)^2·f(g(0)) = f(0)^2·f(1) = 0, which implies f(0) = 0 or f(1) = 0, which implies f(0) does not exist or f(1) does not exist, because of the relationship between f(0) and f(1). As such, 0 and 1 are not elements of dom(f). With this information, you can assume that solutions f : R\{-1, 0, 1} -> R can be found, and those are the ones I will look for, although a similar analysis can be done for f : C\{-1, 0, 1} -> C instead, if done more carefully. The functional equation can be rewritten as f·f·(f*g) = Id, where Id : R\{-1, 0, 1} -> R with Id = x |-> x, giving that g*g = Id. f^2·(f*g) = Id implies (f^2·(f*g))*g = Id*g. Id*g = g, and (f^2·(f*g))*g = (f^2*g)·((f*g)*g) = (f*g)^2·(f*(g*g)) = (f*g)^2·(f*Id) = (f*g)^2·f, thus (f^2·(f*g))*g = Id*g is equivalent to (f*g)^2·f = g. f^2·(f*g) = Id and (f*g)^2·f = g imply (f^2·(f*g))·((f*g)^2·f) = g·Id. (f^2·(f*g))·((f*g)^2·f) = (f^2·f)·((f*g)^2·(f*g)) = f^3·(f*g)^3 = (f·(f*g))^3, so (f·(f*g))^3 = g·Id, or simply that f·(f*g) = (g·Id)^(1/3) (f*g)^2·f = g. f^2·(f*g) = Id and (f*g)^2·f = g also imply f·(f*g)^2 + f^2·(f*g) = Id + g. f·(f*g)^2 + f^2·(f*g) = (f + f*g)·(f·(f*g)), so (f + f*g)·(f·(f*g)) = (f + f*g)·(Id·g)^(1/3) = Id + g implies f + f*g = (Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3). f + f*g = (Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3) and f·(f*g) = (g·Id)^(1/3) imply f + (Id·g)^(1/3)/f = (Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3). This is equivalent to f^2 + (Id·g)^(1/3) = ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))·f, which is equivalent to f^2 - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))·f + (Id·g)^(1/3) = f^2 - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))·f + ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))^2/4 + (Id·g)^(1/3) - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))^2/4 = (f - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))/2)^2 + (Id·g)^(1/3) - (Id^2 + 2·Id·g + g^2)/(4·(Id·g)^(2/3)) = (f - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))/2)^2 + 4·(Id·g)/(4·(Id·g)^(2/3)) - (Id^2 + 2·Id·g + g^2)/(4·(Id·g)^(2/3)) = (f - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))/2)^2 - ((Id - g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)))^2 = 0. This is equivalent to (f - ((Id + g)/(Id·g)^(1/3))/2)^2 = ((Id - g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)))^2. Thus f = (Id + g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)) - (Id - g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)) = g/(Id·g)^(1/3) or f = (Id + g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)) + (Id - g)/(2·(Id·g)^(1/3)) = Id/(Id·g)^(1/3). f = Id/(Id·g)^(1/3) & f·(f*g) = (g·Id)^(1/3) imply f^2·(f*g) = Id, hence only f = Id/(Id·g)^(1/3) solves the equation. If desired, this can be written in algebraic notation, in terms of x, noting that Id(x) = x & g(x) = (1 - x)/(1 + x), so f(x) = x/(x·(1 - x)/(1 + x))^(1/3). Interestingly, this function has removable singularities at -1 & 0, and this results in the continuation function f~ : R\{1} -> R : f~ = x |-> f~(x) = x^(2/3)/((1 - x)/(1 + x))^(1/3) = x^(2/3)·(1 + x)^(1/3)/(1 - x)^(1/3), so that f~(-1) = f~(0) = 0, and 1/f~(1) = 0, which was actually suggested from the previously derived relation f(0) = 1/f(1)^2, where, had f(1) been defined, f(0) = 0. Solving this when the domain of f forms a wheel instead of a field could have been interesting, and may have actually resulted in a simpler solution, but this was fun either way.

Ah, I can't believe I missed that division trick! That definitely makes this problem much simpler, rather than having to solve a quadratic equation.
