Abstract: Let be a 2-torsion free prime ring and  a nonzero lie ideal of such that

derivation on , then is a generalized reverse derivation on .
Key words: Lie ideals, Prime rings, Derivations, Jordan derivations, Generalized
derivations, Generalized Jordan derivations, Reverse derivations, Generalized reverse
derivations, Jordan generalized reverse derivations, Torsion free rings.
Preliminaries: Throughout this paper will denote an associative ring with centre 󰇛󰇜.
Recall that is prime if  implies that or . As usual 󰇟 󰇠 will denote the
commutator  . An additive subgroup of is said to be lie ideal of if 󰇟 󰇠
for all , . An additive mapping is said to be a derivation (resp. Jordan
derivation) if 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 (resp. 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇜 for all  . An
additive mapping is said to be a generalized derivation (resp. Jordan generalized
derivation) associated with the derivation such that 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
(resp.󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇜 for all  . An additive mapping  is called a
reverse derivation (resp. Jordan reverse derivation) if 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜, holds for all . An additive mapping is called a
generalized reverse derivation (resp.Jordan generalized reverse derivation) if there exists a
derivation  such that 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 (resp.󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜) for
all . Clearly, every generalized reverse derivation on a ring is a Jordan generalized
reverse derivation. But the converse statement does not hold in general. The aim of the
present paper is to establish another set of conditions under which every Jordan generalized
reverse derivation on a ring is a generalized reverse derivation. We shall make use of
commutator identities; 󰇟 󰇠󰇟 󰇠 󰇟 󰇠 and 󰇟 󰇠󰇟 󰇠 󰇟 󰇠.
Introduction: Bresar and Vukman [8] have introduced the notion of a reverse derivations.
The reverse derivations on semi prime rings have been studied by Samman and Alyamani
[14]. Hvala [12] studied the properties of generalized derivations of prime rings. Posner [13]
which states that the existence of a nonzero centralizing derivation on a prime rings implies
that the ring has to be commutative. A famous result due to Herstein [11] states that every
Jordan derivation on a 2-torsion free prime ring is a derivation. A brief proof of this result is
presented in Bresar and Vukman [7]. Further, Awtar [4] generalized this result on lie ideals.
Mohammad Ashraf, Nadeem-UR-Rehman and Shakir Ali [3] studied on lie ideals and Jordan
generalized derivation of prime rings. In this paper we extended some results on lie ideals and
Jordan generalized reverse derivation of prime rings.
We begin with the following result which is essentially proved in [5].
Lemma 1: If is a lie ideal of a 2-torsion free prime ring and  such that

We know that

Theorem 1:Let be a 2-torsion free prime ring and a nonzero lie ideal of such that
, for all . If is an additive mapping satisfying 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜, for all , then 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜, for all .
Proof:Let  the mapping defined by
󰇛 󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜.
As we can see, is bi additive. If is a commutative lie ideal of , i.e., 󰇟 󰇠 , for all
 , then use the same arguments as used in the proof lemma 1.3 of [11], . Now,
by lemma 2 (iii), we have
󰇛 󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜
(8)
Since  for all , we find that   for all . This yields that
 for all  . As the ideal is commutative, in view of lemma 2 (i) we have
󰇛 󰇜 󰇛󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇜
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
 󰇛󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇜
This shows that for all 
Since is a 2-torsion free ring, we get
󰇛 󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
(9)
Combining the above equations (8) and (9) and using the fact that  , we obtain
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜 󰇛󰇜
󰇛 󰇜 , for all   .
(10)
Now, replacing by 󰇟 󰇠 in (10) and using (10) , we get 󰇛 󰇜 , for all
 
and and hence 󰇛 󰇜 , for all  . Since and is prime the
above expression yields that 󰇛 󰇜 , for all  . Hence we get the required
result.
Hence, onward we shall assume that is a non-commutative lie ideal of i.e., 󰇛󰇜.
By lemma 3, we have 󰇛 󰇜󰇟 󰇠 , for all    i.e., 󰇛 󰇜󰇟 󰇠 ,
for all   . Thus in view of lemma 1, we find that for each pair   either
󰇛 󰇜 󰇟 󰇠 , for each . Let 󰇝 󰇛 󰇜 󰇞 and
󰇝 󰇟 󰇠 󰇞. Hence, and are additive subgroups of whose union is

By Brauer’s trick, we have either or . Again by using the same method we
find that either 󰇝  󰇞 or  󰇝  󰇞 . Since is non-

An additive mapping F: R → R is called a generalized derivation on R if there exists a derivation d: R → R such that F(xy) = xF(y) + d(x)y holds for all x,y ∈ R. It is called a generalized (α,β)−derivation on R if there exists an (α,β)−derivation d: R → R such that the equation F(xy) = F(x)α(y)+β(x)d(y) holds for all x,y ∈ R. In the present paper, we investigate commutativity of a prime ring R, which satisfies certain differential identities on left ideals of R. Moreover some results on commutativity of rings with involutions that satisfy certain identities are proved.

Let R be a ring and S a nonempty subset of R. An additive mapping F:R→R is called a generalized derivation (resp. Jordan generalized derivation) on S if there exists a derivation d:R→R such that F(xy) = F(x)y + xd(y) (resp. F(x2) = F(x)x+xd(x)) holds for all x, y ∈ S. Suppose that R is a 2-torsion free prime ring and U a nonzero Lie ideal of R such that u2 ∈ U for all u ∈ U. In the present paper it is shown that if F is a Jordan generalized derivation on U, then F is a generalized derivation on U.

Let R be a 2-torsion free prime ring and let U be a Lie ideal of R such that u 2 ∈U for all u∈U. In the present paper it is shown that if d is an additive mapping of R into itself satisfying d(u 2 )=2ud(u) for all u∈U, then d(uv)=ud(v)+vd(u) for all u,v∈U.

The notion of reverse derivation is studied and some properties are obtained. It is shown that in the class of semiprime rings, this notion coincides with the usual derivation when it maps a semiprime ring into its center. However, we provide some examples to show that it is not the case in general. Also it is shown that non-commutative prime rings do not admit a non-trivial skew commuting derivation.

I. N. Herstein has proved that any Jordan derivation on a 2-torsion free prime ring is a derivation. In this paper we prove that Herstein’s result is true in 2-torsion free semiprime rings. This result makes it possible for us to prove that any linear Jordan derivation on a semisimple Banach algebra is continuous, which gives an affirmative answer to the question posed by A. M. Sinclair [in Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 24, 209-214 (1970; Zbl 0175.440)].

The purpose of this paper is to present a brief proof of the well known result of Herstein which states that any Jordan derivation on a prime ring with characteristic not two is a derivation.
