Abstract
This paper treats two functional equations, the Kannappan-Van Vleck functional equation
and the following variant of it
in the setting of semigroups S that need not be abelian or unital, τ is an involutive morphism of S, μ : S→C is a multiplicative function such that μ(xτ(x)) = 1 for all x ∈ S and z 0 is a fixed element in the center of S.
We find the complex-valued solutions of these equations in terms of multiplicative functions and solutions of d’Alembert’s functional equation.
