Let m ≥ 0, n ≥ 0 be fixed integers with m + n 6= 0 and let R be a ring. It is our aim in this paper to investigate additive mapping T : R → R satisfying the relation (m + n)T (x2) = mT (x)x + nxT (x) for all x ∈ R. This research is a continuation of our earlier work ([11]). Throughout, R will represent an associative ring with center Z(R). Given an integer n ≥ 2, a ring R is said to be n−torsio...

For a ring endomorphism $alpha$ and an $alpha$-derivation $delta$, we introduce a concept, so called skew $pi$-Armendariz ring, that is a generalization of both $pi$-Armendariz rings, and $(alpha,delta)$-compatible skew Armendariz rings. We first observe the basic properties of skew $pi$-Armendariz rings, and extend the class of skew $pi$-Armendariz rings through various ring extensions. We nex...

Let R be a ring, σ an automorphism of R and δ a σ-derivation of R. We recall that a ring R is said to be a δ-ring if aδ(a) ∈ P (R) implies a ∈ P (R), where P (R) denotes the prime radical of R. It is known that, if R is a Noetherian ring, σ an automorphism of R such that aσ(a) ∈ P (R) implies a ∈ P (R) and δ a σ-derivation of R such that R is a δ-ring with σ(δ(a)) = δ(σ(a)), for all a ∈ R, then...

Throughout this paper, R will represent an associative ring with center Z(R). A ring R is n-torsion free, where n > 1 is an integer, in case nx = 0, x ∈ R implies x = 0. As usual the commutator xy− yx will be denoted by [x, y]. We will use basic commutator identities [xy,z] = [x,z]y + x[y,z] and [x, yz] = [x, y]z+ y[x,z]. Recall that a ring R is prime if aRb = (0) implies that either a = 0 or b...

The main purpose of this research is to characterize generalized (left) derivations and Jordan (*,*)-derivations on Banach algebras rings using some functional identities. Let A be a unital semiprime algebra let F,G : ? linear mappings satisfying F(x) =-x2G(x-1) for all x Inv(A), where Inv(A) denotes the set invertible elements A. Then both F G are Another result in regard as follows. n > 1 ...

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.

We introduce center-like subsets Z*(R,f), Z**(R,f) and Z1(R,f), where R is a ring and f is a map from R to R. For f a derivation or a non-identity epimorphism and R a suitably-chosen prime or semiprime ring, we prove that these sets coincide with the center of R.

Let $mathfrak{A}$ be a Banach algebra. We say that a sequence ${D_n}_{n=0}^infty$ of continuous operators form $mathfrak{A}$ into $mathfrak{A}$ is a textit{local higher derivation} if to each $ainmathfrak{A}$ there corresponds a continuous higher derivation ${d_{a,n}}_{n=0}^infty$ such that $D_n(a)=d_{a,n}(a)$ for each non-negative integer $n$. We show that if $mathfrak{A}$ is a $C^*$-algebra t...

Let gl(n, R) be the Lie algebra consisting of all n × n matrices over a commutative ring R with identity 1. In this paper, we prove that every generalized Lie triple derivation of gl(n, R)(n ≥ 2) is the sum of a Lie triple derivation and a homothety.

Let R be an associative ring not necessarily with identity element. For any x, y ∈ R. Recall that R is prime if xRy = 0 implies x = 0 or y = 0, and is semiprime if xRx = 0 implies x = 0. Given an integer n ≥ 2, R is said to be n−torsion free if for x ∈ R, nx = 0 implies x = 0.An additive mapping d : R → R is called a derivation if d(xy) = d(x)y + yd(x) holds for all x, y ∈ R, and it is called a...
