Aspects of the theory of derivations

Gerard Murphy (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We survey some old and new results in the theory of derivations on Banach algebras. Although our overview is broad ranging, our principal interest is in recent results concerning conditions on a derivation implying that its range is contained in the radical of the algebra.

Range inclusion results for derivations on noncommutative Banach algebras

Volker Runde (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let A be a Banach algebra, and let D : A → A be a (possibly unbounded) derivation. We are interested in two problems concerning the range of D: 1. When does D map into the (Jacobson) radical of A? 2. If [a,Da] = 0 for some a ∈ A, is Da necessarily quasinilpotent? We prove that derivations satisfying certain polynomial identities map into the radical. As an application, we show that if [a,[a,[a,Da]]] lies in the prime radical of A for all a ∈ A, then D maps into the radical. This generalizes...

Where to find the image of a derivation

Martin Mathieu (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

With this paper, we intend to provide an overview of some recent work on a problem on unbounded derivations of Banach algebras that still defies solution, the non-commutative Singer-Wermer conjecture. In particular, we discuss several global as well as local properties of derivations entailing quasinilpotency in the image.

Compactness of derivations from commutative Banach algebras

Matthew J. Heath (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We consider the compactness of derivations from commutative Banach algebras into their dual modules. We show that if there are no compact derivations from a commutative Banach algebra, A, into its dual module, then there are no compact derivations from A into any symmetric A-bimodule; we also prove analogous results for weakly compact derivations and for bounded derivations of finite rank. We then characterise the compact derivations from the convolution algebra ℓ¹(ℤ₊) to its dual. Finally,...

Some results of reverse derivation on prime and semiprime Γ-rings

Neshtiman Nooraldeen Suliman (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

In the present paper, it is introduced the definition of a reverse derivation on a Γ-ring M. It is shown that a mapping derivation on a semiprime Γ-ring M is central if and only if it is reverse derivation. Also it is shown that M is commutative if for all a,b ∈ I (I is an ideal of M) satisfying d(a) ∈ Z(M), and d(a ∘ b) = 0.
