Abstract

Posner's first theorem states that if R is a prime ring of characteristic different from two, $d_1$ and $d_2$ are derivations on R such that the iterate $d_1d_2$ is also a derivation of R, then at least one of $d_1$, $d_2$ is zero. In the present paper we extend this result to *-prime rings of characteristic different from two.
