Derivations on Banach Algebras

The separating space of a derivation onA is a separating ideal [2, Chapter 5]; it also satisfies the same property for the left products. The following assertions are of the most famous conjectures about derivations on Banach algebras: (C1) every derivation on a Banach algebra has a nilpotent separating ideal; (C2) every derivation on a semiprime Banach algebra is continuous; (C3) every derivat...

Derivations 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 $(1-e)U$. ...

Derivations of Commutative Banach Algebras

In [2] Singer and Wermer showed that a bounded derivation in a commutative Banach algebra 21 necessarily maps 21 into the radical 91. They conjectured at this time that the assumption of boundedness could be dropped. It is a corollary of results proved below that if 21 is in addition regular and semi-simple, this is indeed the case. What is actually proved here is that under the above hypothese...
