Local Derivations of Finitary Incidence Algebras

Rings and Algebras 2017-07-13 v2

Abstract

Let PP be a partially ordered set, RR a commutative ring with identity and FI(P,R)FI(P,R) the finitary incidence algebra of PP over RR. In this note we prove that each RR-linear local derivation of FI(P,R)FI(P,R) is a derivation, which partially generalizes a result by Nowicki and Nowosad.

Minor corrections. In particular, the last steps of the proof of Lemma 2.1 were better clarified
