2-local derivations on Witt algebras

Rings and Algebras 2020-03-31 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we prove that every 2-local derivation on Witt algebras Wn,Wn+W_n, W_n^+ or Wn++W_n^{++} is a derivation for all n=1,2,,n=1,2,\cdots,\infty. As a consequence we obtain that every 2-local derivation on any centerless generalized Virasoro algebra of higher rank is a derivation.
