In this paper, a generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the homogeneous equation shall be proved, i.e., if a mapping f satisfies the functional inequality ‖ f ( y x ) − y k f ( x ) ‖ ≤ φ ( x , y ) under suitable conditions, there exists a unique mapping T satisfying T ( y x ) = y t T ( x ) and ‖ T ( x ) − f ( x ) ‖ ≤ Φ ( x ) .
