Divisible, reciprocal automorphisms of the unit interval

Abstract
The Cauchy equation for automorphisms of the unit interval is fulfilled only by the identity mapping. We consider two weakened forms of this Cauchy equation: the reciprocity equation and the n-divisibility equation. Although the solution sets of both functional equations are quite large, requiring that an automorphism is both reciprocal and n-divisible, drastically increases the set of obligatory fixed points. However, increasing n also enlarges the domain on which the automorphism can be chosen freely. We also describe the solution sets of two functional equations that arise by composing the reciprocity and n-divisibility property.
