Problem 2 (due Monday, September 22 )
Find all functions $F:\mathbb R^2\longrightarrow \mathbb R$ such that
(i) If $ABCD$ is any rectangle on the plane $\mathbb R^2$ then $F(A)+F(C)=F(B)+F(D)$;
(ii) The second order partial derivatives $\displaystyle \frac{\partial^2 F}{\partial x \partial x}$ , $\displaystyle \frac{\partial^2 F}{\partial x \partial y}$, $\displaystyle \frac{\partial^2 F}{\partial y \partial x}$, $\displaystyle \frac{\partial^2 F}{\partial y \partial y}$ exist and are continuous on $\mathbb R^2$ (this means that $F$ is of class $C^2$);
(iii) $F(0,0)=0$, $F(1,0)=1=F(0,1)$, $\displaystyle \frac{\partial F}{\partial x}(0,0)=0$.
