Abel, Recherche de fonctions de deux quantites variable independantes x et y, telles que $f(x, y)$, qui ont la propriM que $f(z,f(x, y))$ est une fonction symttrique de $z, x$ et $y$, J. Reine Angew. Math. 1 (1826), 11-15 [Oeuvres completes, I, pp. 61-65, Christiania 1881].

Strong superpositions and linearizability" on p. 502 states, "Abel in 1826 <ref below> was the first to show that if $F(x, y)$ is an abelian group operation on the reals and satisfies certain other conditions, then there exist a one-to-one function, $f$, of one variable such that $F(x, y) = f^{ -1}( f (x) + f(y))$."
