摘要
We investigate mappings between finite product groups which are approximately homomorphisms, with respect to some metric on the range. Our main positive result says that if the metric corresponds to a nonpathological submeasure, then the mapping can be approximated by a homomorphism within a constant error. We also use Ramsey's theorem to prove that this fails in the case when the nonpathologicity assumption is dropped. This note extends results of [2], where analogous results were proved for Boolean algebras.
