Fixed Point Methods for the Generalized Stability of Functional Equations in a Single Variable

We discuss on the generalized Ulam-Hyers stability for functional equations in a single variable, including the nonlinear functional equations, the linear functional equations, and a generalization of functional equation for the square root spiral. The stability results have been obtained by a fixed point method. This method introduces a metrical context and shows that the stability is related to some fixed point of a suitable operator.
