LINEAR DERIVATIONS IN BANACH ALGEBRAS

  • Published : 2001.08.01

Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to show the following: Let d and g be (continuous or discontinuous) linear derivations on a Banach algebra A over a complex field C such that $\alphad^3+dg$ is a linear Jordan derivation for some $\alpha\inC$. Then the product dg maps A into the Jacobson radical of A.
