Abstract

Let A be a unital semiprime, complex normed *-algebra and let f,g,h: A → A be linear mappings such that f and g + h are continuous. Under certain conditions, we prove that if f (pp) = g(p) ○ p + ph(p) holds for any projection p of A, then f and g + h are two-sided generalized derivations, where a ○ b = ab + ba. We present some consequences of this result. Moreover, we show that if A is a semiprime algebra with the unit element e and n > 1 is an integer such that the linear mappings f,g: A → A satisfy f (xn) = √j = 1nxn-jg(x)xj-1 for all x £ A and further g(e) ∈ Z(A), then f and g are two-sided generalized derivations associated with the same derivation. Also, we show that if A is a unital, semiprime Banach algebra and F, G: A → A are linear mappings satisfying F(b) = —bG(b-1)b for all invertible elements bA, then F and G are two-sided generalized derivations. Some other related results are also discussed.
