Let R be a ring with involution. An additive mapping T : R → R is called a left ∗-centralizer (resp. Jordan left ∗-centralizer) if T (xy) = T (x)y∗ (resp. T (x2) = T (x)x∗) holds for all x, y ∈ R, and a reverse left ∗-centralizer if T (xy) = T (y)x∗ holds for all x, y ∈ R. The purpose of this paper is to solve some functional equations involving Jordan left ∗-centralizers on some appropriate su...

Let / and g be functions of a set 5 into a semiprime ring R. A necessary and sufficient condition for / and g to satisfy f{s)xg{t) = g{s)xf{t) for all s, t e S, x e R is given. As an application, biderivations and commuting additive mappings of semiprime rings are characterized.

Let R be a ring with center Z(R). We write the commutator [x, y] = xy− yx, (x, y ∈ R). The following commutator identities hold: [xy,z] = x[y,z] + [x,z]y; [x, yz] = y[x,z] + [x, y]z for all x, y,z ∈ R. We recall that R is prime if aRb = (0) implies that a= 0 or b = 0; it is semiprime if aRa = (0) implies that a = 0. A prime ring is clearly a semiprime ring. A mapping f : R→ R is called centrali...

We study certain properties of derivations on semiprime rings. The main purpose is to prove the following result: let R be a semiprime ring with center Z(R), and let f , g be derivations of R such that f(x)x+xg(x) ∈ Z(R) for all x ∈ R, then f and g are central. As an application, we show that noncommutative semisimple Banach algebras do not admit nonzero linear derivations satisfying the above ...

We give a characterization of right Noetherian semiprime semiperfect and semidistributive rings with inj. dimAAA 6 1.

The main purpose of this paper is a wide generalization one the results abstract algebraic geometry begins with, namely fact that prime spectrum $${\mathrm {Spec}}(R)$$ unital commutative ring R always spectral (= coherent) topological space. In generalization, which includes several other known ones, role ideals played by elements an complete lattice L equipped with binary multiplication $$xy\...

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