Let A be a Banach algebra and M be a Banach left A-module. A linear map δ : M → M is called a generalized derivation if there exists a derivation d : A → A such that δ(ax) = aδ(x) + d(a)x (a ∈ A,x ∈ M). In this paper, we associate a triangular Banach algebra T to Banach A-module M and investigate the relation between generalized derivations on M and derivations on T . In particular, we prove th...

We recall the definition of strong homotopy derivations of A∞ algebras and introduce the corresponding definition for L∞ algebras. We define strong homotopy inner derivations for both algebras and exhibit explicit examples of both.

Thermodynamics entails a set of mathematical conditions on quantum Markovian dynamics. In particular, strict energy conservation between the system and environment implies that dissipative dynamical map commutes with unitary propagator. Employing spectral analysis we prove general form ensuing master equation. We compare this result to equations obtained from standard microscopic derivations. T...

We study a class of matrix function algebras, here denoted T (Cn). We introduce a notion of point derivations, and classify the point derivations for certain finite dimensional representations of T (Cn). We use point derivations and information about n×n matrices to show that every T (Cn)-valued derivation on T (Cn) is inner. Certain matrix function algebras arise in some standard constructions...

This paper focuses on certain finite dimensional point derivations for the non-selfadjoint operator algebras corresponding to directed graphs. We begin by analyzing the derivations corresponding to full matrix representations of the tensor algebra of a directed graph. We determine when such a derivation is inner, and describe situations that give rise to non-inner derivations. We also analyze t...

This paper shows how derivations in (a variation of) SKS can be translated into proof nets. Since an SKS derivation contains more information about a proof than the corresponding proof net, we observe a loss of information which can be understood as “eliminating bureaucracy”. Technically this is achieved by cut reduction on proof nets. As an intermediate step between the two extremes, SKS deriv...

This paper is a study of derivations on unbounded operator algebras in connection with those in operator algebras. In particular we study spatiality of derivations in several situations. We give the characterization of derivations on general «-algebras by using positive linear functionals. We also show that a derivation with some range-property on a left ■EW*-algebra induced by an unbounded Hub...

This paper introduces deriuation table.s that represent a complete grammatical derivations as whole in a vertical way. These tables are obtained by writing the consecutive sentential forms of grammatical derivations vertically one by one. The present paper places and discusses some restrictions on the columns of these tables. IVIore specifically, these restrictions constrain the order of contex...

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. In this paper we present a survey of some aspects of the theory of derivations on Banach algebras. No attempt is made at co...
