b-Generalized Derivations Acting on Multilinear Polynomials in Prime Rings
Abstract
Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, Q be its maximal right ring of quotients, and C be its extended centroid. Suppose that f(x1,…,xn)f(x1,…,xn) is a non-central multilinear polynomial over C, 0 ≠ p ∈ R0≠p∈R, and F, G are two b-generalized derivations of R. In this paper we describe all possible forms of F and G in the case pG(F(f(r))f(r))=0pG(F(f(r))f(r))=0 for all r=(r1,…,rn)r=(r1,…,rn) in Rn.
