On additive arithmetical functions with values in topological groups. III
Abstract:
We prove that if $G$ is an additively written Abelian topological group with the translation invariant metric $\rho$ and
$$
{1\over{\log x}}\sum_{n\le x}{\rho(\varphi(n),\varphi(n+1))\over n}\to 0\quad(x\to\infty),
$$
where $\varphi:\mathbb{N}\to G$ is a completely additive function, then the extension $\varphi:\mathbb{R}_x\to G$ is a continuous homomorphism, where $\mathbb{R}_x$ is the multiplicative group of positive real numbers.
Keywords: Abelian topological group, completely additive function, continuous homomorphism
