Throughout this paper R denotes the set of all real numbers, m(K) the Lebesgue measure of KR, H a Hilbert space, L(H) the set of all linear continuous mappings of H into H, endowed with the usual structure of a Banach space.

We consider the mapping F of the set R into L(H) such that

holds for all x, yR. In (2) we have solved this equation under the assumption that H is of finite dimension. In this paper we prove that a weak measurability of F implies its weak continuity in the case of separable Hilbert space. In Theorem 2 we prove that every weakly continuous solution of (1) in the set of normal transformations has the form F(x) = cos (xN), where the normal transformation N does not depend on x.
