Suppose that $\calak$ is a $C^*$-algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\calhk$, and that $\phi, \psi$ are mappings from $\calak$ into $B(\calhk)$ which are not assumed to be necessarily linear or continuous. A $(\phi, \psi)$-derivation is a…

The celebrated Kadison--Sakai theorem states that every derivation on a von Neumann algebra is inner. In this paper, we prove this theorem for ultraweakly continuous *-\sigma-derivations, where \sigma is an ultraweakly continuous surjective…

We prove new results on generalized derivations on C$^*$-algebras. By considering the triple product $\{a,b,c\} =2^{-1} (a b^* c + c b^* a)$, we introduce the study of linear maps which are triple derivations or triple homomorphisms at a…

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 bilinear map $D: \A \times \A \to \A$ is said to be a…

Let $A$ be a ring and $\sigma: A \to A$ a ring endomorphism. A generalized skew (or $\sigma$-)derivation of $A$ is an additive map $d: A \to A$ for which there exists a map $\delta:A \to A$ such that $d(xy)=\delta(x)y+\sigma(x)d(y)$ for all…

We prove that every weak-local derivation on a C$^*$-algebra is continuous, and the same conclusion remains valid for weak$^*$-local derivations on von Neumann algebras. We further show that weak-local derivations on C$^*$-algebras and…

We present the following reflexivity-like result concerning the automorphism group of the $C^*$-algebra B(H), H being a separable Hilbert space. Let $\phi:B(H)\to B(H)$ be a multiplicative map (no linearity or continuity is assumed) which…
