Here the numbers $2,3,q$ depend on the functional equations given in the almost linear mappings or in the almost linear almost multiplicative mappings. Moreover, we prove the Cauchy--Rassias stability of Lie JC$^*$-algebra homomorphisms in Lie JC$^*$-algebras, and of Lie JC$^*$-algebra derivations in Lie JC$^*$-algebras. Keywords: Lie JC*-algebra homomorphism, Lie JC*-algebra derivation, stability, linear functional equation. MSC: 17B40, 39B52, 46L05; 17A36 [ Fulltext-pdf  (224  KB)] for subscribers only.
