# GENERALIZED DERIVATIONS IN PRIME RINGS AND NONCOMMUTATIVE BANACH ALGEBRAS

• Published : 2008.11.30

#### Abstract

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, C the extended centroid of R, and $\delta$ a generalized derivations of R. If [[$\delta(x)$, x], $\delta(x)$] = 0 for all $x\;{\in}\;R$ then either R is commutative or $\delta(x)\;=\;ax$ for all $x\;{\in}\;R$ and some $a\;{\in}\;C$. We also obtain some related result in case R is a Banach algebra and $\delta$ is either continuous or spectrally bounded.
