Multiplicative functions additive on generalized pentagonal numbers
[Les fonctions multiplicatives qui sont additives sur les nombres pentagonaux généralisés]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 356 (2018) no. 2, pp. 125-128.

Nous prouvons que l'ensemble GP de tous les nombres pentagonaux généralisés non nuls est un ensemble d'unicité additive ; si une fonction multiplicative f satisfait l'équation

f(a+b)=f(a)+f(b),
pour tous a,bGP, alors f est la fonction identité.

We prove that the set GP of all nonzero generalized pentagonal numbers is an additive uniqueness set; if a multiplicative function f satisfies the equation

f(a+b)=f(a)+f(b),
for all a,bGP, then f is the identity function.
