Abstract
In this work, we introduce a new type of generalized mixed-type quadratic-additive functional equation and obtain its general solution. The main goal of this work is to investigate Ulam stability of this mixed type of quadratic-additive functional equation in the setting of non-Archimedean fuzzy -2-normed space and non-Archimedean Banach space using the direct and fixed point approaches by taking into our account two cases: even mapping and odd mapping.

1. Introduction and Preliminaries
The study of stability problems for functional equations is one of the essential research areas in mathematics, which originated in issues related to applied mathematics. The first question concerning the stability of homomorphisms was given by Ulam [1] as follows.
Given a group , a metric group with the metric d, and a mapping f from G and , does exist such that
for all ? If such a mapping exists, then does a homomorphism exist such that
for all ? Ulam defined such a problem in 1940 and solved it the following year for the Cauchy functional equation
by the method of Hyers [2]. The consequence of Hyers becomes stretched out by Aoki [3] with the aid of assuming the unbounded Cauchy contrasts. The additive mapping demonstrated by Rassias [4]. Rassias’s result is summed up by Găvruţa [5].
From that point forward, numerous stability problems for different functional equations have been explored in [6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15]. Later, the stability issues for different types of functional equations were investigated in [16,17]. Particularly, while the possibility of intuitionistic fuzzy normed space was introduced in [18] and further studied in [19,20] to manage some summability issues.
The additive functional equation and quadratic functional equation are denoted by
and
respectively. Every solution to the functional equations containing additive and quadratic terms is particularly called as an additive function and a quadratic function, respectively.
During the most recent thirty years, the hypothesis of non-Archimedean spaces has acquired the interest of physicists for their research specifically in issues coming from quantum physical science, p-adic strings and superstrings [21]. In [22], Hensel presented a normed space that does not have the Archimedean property. Although numerous outcomes in the traditional normed space hypothesis have a non-Archimedean counterpart, their confirmations are basically unique and require a completely new sort of instinct [21,23,24,25,26].
In this current work, the authors present a new mixed type quadratic-additive functional equation
where is a non-negative integer with , and obtain its general solution. The main aim of this work is to investigate the Ulam stability of Equation (1) by using direct and fixed point methods in non-Archimedean fuzzy -2-normed space and non-Archimedean Banach space. It is clear that the mapping is a solution of (1).
We can refer to some usual definitions, terminology and notions to achieve our main results from [16,17,19,20,22,23,24,27]
A map is a valuation such that zero is the only one element having the zero valuation, , and the inequality of the triangle holds true, that is, , for all .
We call a field valued if holds a valuation. Examples of valuations include the typical absolute values of and .
Consider a valuation that satisfies a criterion that is stronger than the triangle inequality. A is called a non-Archimedean valuation if the triangle inequality is replaced by , for all , and a field is called a non-Archimedean field. Evidently, and are greater than or equal to 1, for all n in . The map takes everything except 0 for 1, and is a basic example of a non-Archimedean valuation.
Definition 1
([22]). By a non-Archimedean field, we denote a field equipped with a valuation satisfies , , and for every . Clearly, and for every .
Let V be a vector space over a scalar field with a non-Archimedean nontrivial valuation . A mapping is referred to as a non-Archimedean norm (valuation) if it satisfies the following conditions:
- (i)
- ;
- (ii)
- , ;
- (iii)
- (called as ultrametric).
The pairis known as a non-Archimedean normed space.
We know that
sequence is called Cauchy if in a non-Archimedean normed space V. By a complete non-Archimedean normed space, we mean one in which every Cauchy sequence is convergent.
Definition 2
([27]). A t-norm ⋄ is a function which is commutative, associative, non decreasing and satisfies for every .
Definition 3.
Let V be a non-Archimedean normed space and a sequence in V. Then
- 1.
- A sequence in V is a Cauchy sequence if and only if converges to 0.
- 2.
- is called convergent if, for any , there is a integer in and satisfiesThen we called as v is a limit of the sequence and represented by .
- 3.
- If every Cauchy sequence in a non-Archimedean normed space V converges, it is called a non-Archimedean Banach space.
Example 1.
For a given prime number p, any non-zero rational number x can be uniquely written as , where and a, b are integers not divisible by p. Then, the function defined by
is a non-Archimedean (non-trivial) valuation on .
Definition 4
([23,24]). Let V be a real linear space with dimension greater than 1 and satusfying the following conditions: For all and all ,

- (NAF4)
- ;
- (NAF5)
- is left continuous.
- (NAF6)
- , for all .
The triple will be referred to as a non-Archimedean fuzzy φ-2-normed space.
Definition 5.
([23,24]). Suppose we have a non-Archimedean fuzzy φ-2-normed space and in Then is said to be convergent if there is satisfying
for all and all . In this case, v is the limit point of . We denote it by
Definition 6.
A sequence is said to be Cauchy if for a given , there is such that
for all , and .
Every convergent sequence in a non-Archimedean fuzzy -2-normed space is a Cauchy sequence.
Definition 7.
If every Cauchy sequence is convergent, a non-Archimedean fuzzy φ-2-normed space is called a non-Archimedean fuzzy φ-2-Banach space.

5. Conclusions
Many mathematicians investigated the Ulam stability of many different types of additive, quadratic, and cubic functional equations in various normed spaces. In our investigations, we first defined a new kind of mixed type of quadratic-additive functional Equation (1) and derived its general solution. Mainly, the authors investigated the Ulam stability of this mixed type of quadratic-additive functional Equation (1) in the setting of on-Archimedean fuzzy -2-normed space and non-Archimedean Banach space using the direct and fixed point approaches by taking into our account two cases, even mapping and odd mapping.
It should be noted that the Ulam stability of this mixed type of quadratic-additive functional Equation (1) can be determined in a variety of frameworks, such as quasi--normed spaces, fuzzy normed spaces, random normed spaces, probabilistic normed spaces, intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces, and so on. The findings and techniques used in this study might be valuable to other researchers who want to conduct further work in this area.
