Zero Derivations

چکیده
In LI 31.2, J. Rubach proposes a modified version of OT that features derivations. In the present article I argue that, while some modification to the original formulation by Prince and Smolensky is needed, the correct one is not to re-introduce derivations, but rather to take fuller advantage of OT’s inherent parallelism. I propose that outputs must be related not only to inputs, but to other, ‘neighboring’, representations as well --a feature that is shared by both the ‘output-to-output faithfulness approach’ and the theory of ‘targeted’ constraints developed by C.Wilson. I show that all the cases cited by Rubach that would seem to support derivations are in fact handled by the latter two related theories, and that each of these has significant advantages over derivations.

POINT DERIVATIONS ON BANACH ALGEBRAS OF α-LIPSCHITZ VECTOR-VALUED OPERATORS
The Lipschitz function algebras were first defined in the 1960s by some mathematicians, including Schubert. Initially, the Lipschitz real-value and complex-value functions are defined and quantitative properties of these algebras are investigated. Over time these algebras have been studied and generalized by many mathematicians such as Cao, Zhang, Xu, Weaver, and others. Let be a non-emp...
متن کاملDouble derivations of n-Lie algebras
After introducing double derivations of $n$-Lie algebra $L$ we describe the relationship between the algebra $mathcal D(L)$ of double derivations and the usual derivation Lie algebra $mathcal Der(L)$. In particular, we prove that the inner derivation algebra $ad(L)$ is an ideal of the double derivation algebra $mathcal D(L)$; we also show that if $L$ is a perfect $n$-Lie algebra wit...
متن کاملOn Jordan left derivations and generalized Jordan left derivations of matrix rings
Abstract. Let R be a 2-torsion free ring with identity. In this paper, first we prove that any Jordan left derivation (hence, any left derivation) on the full matrix ringMn(R) (n 2) is identically zero, and any generalized left derivation on this ring is a right centralizer. Next, we show that if R is also a prime ring and n 1, then any Jordan left derivation on the ring Tn(R) of all n×n uppe...
متن کاملCharacterizations of linear mappings through zero products or zero Jordan products
Let A be a unital algebra and M be a unital A-bimodule. A characterization of generalized derivations and generalized Jordan derivations from A into M, through zero products or zero Jordan products, is given. Suppose that M is a unital left A-module. It is investigated when a linear mapping from A into M is a Jordan left derivation under certain conditions. It is also studied whether an algebra...
متن کاملDerivations in semiprime rings and Banach algebras
Let $R$ be a 2-torsion free semiprime ring with extended centroid $C$, $U$ the Utumi quotient ring of $R$ and $m,n>0$ are fixed integers. We show that if $R$ admits derivation $d$ such that $b[[d(x), x]_n,[y,d(y)]_m]=0$ for all $x,yin R$ where $0neq bin R$, then there exists a central idempotent element $e$ of $U$ such that $eU$ is commutative ring and $d$ induce a zero derivation on $(1-e)U$. ...
