We study symmetric continuous bilinear maps $V$ on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ that have the Jordan product property at a fixed element $z\in A$. We show that, whenever $A$ is a finite direct sum or a $c_0$-sum of infinite simple von Neumann…

In this paper, we mainly study the derivation algebras of semi-simple Jordan algebras over a field of characteristic $0$ and give sufficient and necessary conditions that the derivation algebras of them are simple. As an application, we…

Let $A$ and $B$ be Banach algebras with bounded approximate identities and let $\Phi:A\to B$ be a surjective continuous linear map which preserves two-sided zero products (i.e., $\Phi(a)\Phi(b)=\Phi(b)\Phi(a)=0$ whenever $ab=ba=0$). We show…

We study unitary multigraded non-associative algebras R generated by an ordered set X over a field K of characteristic 0 such that the mappings d_k: x_l->delta_{kl}, x_k,x_l in X, can be extended to derivations of R. The class of these…

Let $A$ be an algebra and $\sigma$ an automorphism of $A$. A linear map $d$ of $A$ is called a $\sigma$-derivation of $A$ if $d(xy) = d(x)y + \sigma(x)d(y)$, for all $x, y \in A$. A linear map $D$ is said to be a generalized…

Let $n\in \Bbb N,$ and let $A,B$ be two rings. An additive map $h: A\to B$ is called n-Jordan homomorphism if $h(a^n)=(h(a))^n$ for all $a \in {A}$. Every Jordan homomorphism is an n-Jordan homomorphism, for all $n\geq 2,$ but the converse…

Let $R$ be a prime ring with center $Z(R)$ and with involution $*$. Given an additive subgroup $A$ of $R$, let $T(A):=\{x+x^*\mid x\in A\}$ and $K_0(A):=\{x-x^*\mid x\in A\}$. Let $L$ be a non-abelian Lie ideal of $R$. It is proved that if…

Let $\U$ be a von Neumann algebra with a projection $P\in \U$. For any $A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n\in\U,$ define $p_1(A_1)=A_1,$ $p_n (A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n)=[p_{n-1} (A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_{n-1}),A_n]$ for all integers $n\geq 2,$ where $[A,B]=AB-BA$…

In this short note we prove that every Jordan derivation of triangular algebras is a derivation.

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field $F$ with char$(F)\ne 2$. We show that a linear map $D:A\to A$ satisfying $xD(x)x\in [A,A]$ for every $x\in A$ is the sum of an inner derivation and a linear map whose image lies in the…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ denote the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2$. For $n \ge 2$, we classify all maps $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$…

Let $n\in \Bbb N-\{1\},$ and let $A$ be a Banach algebra. An additive map $D: A\to A$ is called n-Jordan derivation if $$D(a^n)=D(a)a^{n-1}+aD(a)a^{n-2}+...+a^{n-2}D(a)a+a^{n-1}D(a),$$ for all $a \in {A}$. Using fixed point methods, we…

We define triangulated factorization systems on triangulated categories, and prove that a suitable subclass thereof (the normal triangulated torsion theories) corresponds bijectively to $t$-structures on the same category. This result is…

We provide that any Jordan derivation from the block upper triangular matrix algebra $\T = \T(n_{1},n_{2}, \cdots, n_{k})\subseteq M_{n}(\mathbb{\C})$ into a $2$-torsion free unital $\T$-bimodule is the sum of a derivation and an…

In this paper we prove that any nonlinear Jordan derivation on triangular algebras is an additive derivation. As a byproduct, we obtain that any nonlinear Jordan derivation on nest algebras over infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces is inner.
