Generalized derivations in prime and semiprime

Remarks on Generalized Derivations in Prime and Semiprime Rings

Let R be a ring with center Z and I a nonzero ideal of R. An additive mapping F : R → R is called a generalized derivation of R if there exists a derivation d : R → R such that F xy F x y xd y for all x, y ∈ R. In the present paper, we prove that if F x, y ± x, y for all x, y ∈ I or F x ◦ y ± x ◦ y for all x, y ∈ I, then the semiprime ring R must contains a nonzero central ideal, provided d I /...

Lie Ideals and Generalized Derivations in Semiprime Rings

Let R be a 2-torsion free ring and L a Lie ideal of R. An additive mapping F : R ! R is called a generalized derivation on R if there exists a derivation d : R to R such that F(xy) = F(x)y + xd(y) holds for all x y in R. In the present paper we describe the action of generalized derivations satisfying several conditions on Lie ideals of semiprime rings.

On Generalized Derivations of Semiprime Rings

Let F be a commuting generalized derivation, with associated derivation d, on a semiprime ring R. We show that d(x)[y, z] = 0 for all x, y, z ∈ R and d is central. We define and characterize dependent elements of F and investigate a decomposition of R relative to F . Mathematics Subject Classification: 16N60, 16W25

Generalized Derivations of Prime Rings

Let R be an associative prime ring, U a Lie ideal such that u2 ∈ U for all u ∈ U . An additive function F : R→ R is called a generalized derivation if there exists a derivation d : R→ R such that F(xy)= F(x)y + xd(y) holds for all x, y ∈ R. In this paper, we prove that d = 0 or U ⊆ Z(R) if any one of the following conditions holds: (1) d(x) ◦F(y)= 0, (2) [d(x),F(y) = 0], (3) either d(x) ◦ F(y) ...
