This paper focuses on certain finite dimensional point derivations for the non-selfadjoint operator algebras corresponding to directed graphs. We begin by analyzing the derivations corresponding to full matrix representations of the tensor algebra of a directed graph. We determine when such a derivation is inner, and describe situations that give rise to non-inner derivations. We also analyze the situation when the derivation corresponds to a multiplicative linear functional.
We prove that every weak-local derivation on a C$^*$-algebra is continuous, and the same conclusion remains valid for weak$^*$-local derivations on von Neumann algebras. We further show that weak-local derivations on C$^*$-algebras and weak$^*$-local derivations on von Neumann algebras are derivations. We also study the connections between bilocal derivations and bilocal $^*$-automorphism with our notions of extreme-strong-local derivations and automorphisms.
Let $L$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space. Suppose $A$ is a C$^*$-algebra with the property that every weak-2-local derivation on $A$ is a {\rm(}linear{\rm)} derivation. We prove that every weak-2-local derivation on $C_0(L,A)$ is a {\rm(}linear{\rm)} derivation. Among the consequences we establish that if $B$ is an atomic von Neumann algebra or on a compact C$^*$-algebra, then every weak-2-local derivation on $C_0(L,B)$ is a linear derivation. We further show that, for a general von Neumann algebra $M$, every 2-local derivation on $C_0(L,M)$ is a linear derivation. We also prove several re…
We prove that every bounded local triple derivation on a unital C*-algebra is a triple derivation. A similar statement is established in the category of unital JB*-algebras.
In a first result we prove that every continuous local triple derivation on a JB$^*$-triple is a triple derivation. We also give an automatic continuity result, that is, we show that local triple derivations on a JB$^*$-triple are continuous even if not assumed a priori to be so. In particular every local triple derivation on a C$^*$-algebra is a triple derivation. We also explore the connections between (bounded local) triple derivations and generalised (Jordan) derivations on a C$^*$-algebra.
Let A be a C*-algebra and d from A into A** be a continuous linear map. We assume that d acts like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several types of orthogonality conditions such as ab=0, ab*=0, ab=ba=0 and ab*=b*a=0. In each case, we characterize the structure of d. Then we apply our results for von Neumann algebras and unital simple C*-algebras.
Let $M$ be a type I von Neumann algebra with the center $Z,$ and let $LS(M)$ be the algebra of all locally measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ We prove that every $Z$-linear derivation on $LS(M)$ is inner. In particular all $Z$-linear derivations on the algebras of measurable and respectively totally measurable operators are spatial and implemented by elements from $LS(M).$
The paper is devoted to local derivations on the algebra $S(\mathcal{M},τ)$ of $τ$-measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ and a faithful normal semi-finite trace $τ.$ We prove that every local derivation on $S(\mathcal{M},τ)$ which is continuous in the measure topology, is in fact a derivation. In the particular case of type I von Neumann algebras they all are inner derivations. It is proved that for type I finite von Neumann algebras without an abelian direct summand, and also for von Neumann algebras with the atomic lattice of projections, the condition of c…
Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ we introduce so called central extension $mix(M)$ of $M$. We show that $mix(M)$ is a *-subalgebra in the algebra $LS(M)$ of all locally measurable operators with respect to $M,$ and this algebra coincides with $LS(M)$ if and only if $M $ does not admit type II direct summands. We prove that if $M$ is a properly infinite von Neumann algebra then every additive derivation on the algebra $mix(M)$ is inner. This implies that on the algebra $LS(M)$, where $M$ is a type I$_\infty$ or a type III von Neumann algebra, all additive derivations are inner derivations.
The paper is devoted to 2-local derivations on matrix algebras over unital semi-prime Banach algebras. For a unital semi-prime Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ with the inner derivation property we prove that any 2-local derivation on the algebra $M_{2^n}(\mathcal{A}),$ $n\geq 2,$ is a derivation. We apply this result to $AW^\ast$-algebras and show that any 2-local derivation on an arbitrary $AW^\ast$-algebra is a derivation.
We prove that every 2-local derivation from the algebra $M_n(\mathcal{A})(n>2)$ into its bimodule $M_n(\mathcal{M})$ is a derivation, where $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital Banach algebra and $\mathcal{M}$ is a unital $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule such that each Jordan derivation from $\mathcal{A}$ into $\mathcal{M}$ is an inner derivation, and that every 2-local derivation on a C*-algebra with a faithful traceable representation is a derivation. We also characterize local and 2-local Lie derivations on some algebras such as von Neumann algebras, nest algebras, Jiang-Su algebra and UHF algebras.
The paper is devoted to 2-local derivations on matrix algebras over commutative regular algebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a commutative regular algebra to admit 2-local derivations which are not derivations. We prove that every 2-local derivation on a matrix algebra over a commutative regular algebra is a derivation. We apply these results to 2-local derivations on algebras of measurable and locally measurable operators affiliated with type I von Neumann algebras.
Let \(\mathcal{A}\) be a unital Banach algebra such that any Jordan derivation from \(\mathcal{A}\) into any \(\mathcal{A}\)-bimodule \(\mathcal{M}\) is a derivation. We prove that any 2-local derivation from the algebra $M_n(\mathcal{A})$ into $M_n(\mathcal{M})$ $(n\geq 3)$ is a derivation. We apply this result to show that any 2-local derivation on the algebra of locally measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra without direct abelian summands is a derivation.
The additive (generalized) $ξ$-Lie derivations on prime algebras are characterized. It is shown, under some suitable assumption, that an additive map $L$ is an additive (generalized) Lie derivation if and only if it is the sum of an additive (generalized) derivation and an additive map from the algebra into its center vanishing all commutators; is an additive (generalized) $ξ$-Lie derivation with $ξ\not=1$ if and only if it is an additive (generalized) derivation satisfying $L(ξA)=ξL(A)$ for all $A$. These results are then used to characterize additive (generalized) $ξ$-Lie derivations on seve…
We prove that each local Lie $n$-derivation is a Lie $n$-derivation under mild assumptions on the unital algebras with a nontrivial idempotent. As applications, we obtain descriptions of local Lie $n$-derivations on generalized matrix algebras, triangular algebras, nest algebras, von Neumann algebras, and the algebras of locally measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra.
The paper is devoted to the description of $2$-local derivations on von Neumann algebras. Earlier it was proved that every $2$-local derivation on a semi-finite von Neumann algebra is a derivation. In this paper, using the analogue of Gleason Theorem for signed measures, we extend this result to type $III$ von Neumann algebras. This implies that on arbitrary von Neumann algebra each $2$-local derivation is a derivation.
We prove new results on generalized derivations on C$^*$-algebras. By considering the triple product $\{a,b,c\} =2^{-1} (a b^* c + c b^* a)$, we introduce the study of linear maps which are triple derivations or triple homomorphisms at a point. We prove that a continuous linear $T$ map on a unital C$^*$-algebra is a generalized derivation whenever it is a triple derivation at the unit element. If we additionally assume $T(1)=0,$ then $T$ is a $^*$-derivation and a triple derivation. Furthermore, a continuous linear map on a unital C$^*$-algebra which is a triple derivation at the unit element …
The paper is devoted to so-called local and 2-local derivations on the noncommutative Arens algebra $L^ω(M, τ)$ associated with a von Neumann algebra $M$ and a faithful normal semi-finite trace $τ.$ We prove that every 2-local derivation on $L^ω(M, τ)$ is a spatial derivation, and if $M$ is a finite von Neumann algebra, then each local derivation on $L^ω(M, τ)$ is also a spatial derivation and every 2-local derivation on $M$ is in fact an inner derivation.
Without the faithful assumption, we prove that every Jordan derivation on a class of path algebras of quivers without oriented cycles is a derivation and that every Lie derivation on such kinds of algebras is of the standard form.
The paper is devoted to 2-local derivations on the algebra $LS(M)$ of all locally measurable operators affiliated with a type I$_\infty$ von Neumann algebra $M.$ We prove that every 2-local derivation on $LS(M)$ is a derivation.
In this paper we study decompositions and classification problems for unbounded derivations in Bunce-Deddens-Toeplitz and Bunce-Deddens algebras. We also look at implementations of these derivations on associated GNS Hilbert spaces.
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital associative algebra and $\mathcal{M}$ be an $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule. A linear mapping $φ$ from $\mathcal{A}$ into an $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule $\mathcal{M}$ is called a Lie derivation if $φ[A,B]=[φ(A),B]+[A,φ(B)]$ for each $A,B$ in $\mathcal{A}$, and $φ$ is called a \emph{local Lie derivation} if for every $A$ in $\mathcal{A}$, there exists a Lie derivation $φ_{A}$ (depending on $A$) from $\mathcal{A}$ into $\mathcal{M}$ such that $φ(A)=φ_{A}(A)$. In this paper, we prove that every local Lie derivation on von Neumann algebras is a Lie derivation; and we show that if $…
We prove that if M is a von Neumann algebra whose abelian summand is discrete, then every local derivation on the algebra of all measurable operators affilated with M is a derivation. This answers a question of Richard Kadison.
Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ with a faithful normal finite trace $τ$ denote by $L^Λ(M, τ)$ the generalized Arens algebra with respect to $M.$ We give a complete description of all additive derivations on the algebra $L^Λ(M, τ).$ In particular each additive derivation on the algebra $L^Λ(M, τ),$ where $M$ is a type II von Neumann algebra, is inner.
It is proved that every 2-local derivation on an AW$^*$-algebra of type I is a derivation. Also an analog of Gleason theorem for signed measures on projections of homogenous AW$^*$-algebras except the cases of an AW$^*$-algebra of type I$_2$ and a factor of type I$_m$, $2<m<\infty$ is proved.
We show that if $C_u^*(X)$ is a uniform Roe algebra associated to a bounded geometry metric space X, then all bounded derivations on $C^*_u(X)$ are inner.
We prove that every Lie derivation on a solid $\star-$subalgebras of locally measurable operators it is equal to a sum of the associative derivation and the center-valued trace.
This paper is devoted to derivations on the algebra $S(M)$ of all measurable operators affiliated with a finite von Neumann algebra $M.$ We prove that if $M$ is a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $τ$, equipped with the locally measure topology $t,$ then every $t$-continuous derivation $D:S(M)\rightarrow S(M)$ is inner. A similar result is valid for derivation on the algebra $S(M,τ)$ of $τ$-measurable operators equipped with the measure topology $t_τ$.
In the present paper 2-local derivations on various algebras of infinite dimensional matrix-valued functions on a compact are considered. It is proved that every 2-local derivation on such algebra is a derivation. Also we explain that the method developed in the given paper can be applied to associative, Jordan and Lie algebras of infinite dimensional matrix-valued functions on a compact.
It is well known that every derivation of a von Neumann algebra into itself is an inner derivation and that every derivation of a von Neumann algebra into its predual is inner. It is less well known that every triple derivation (defined below) of a von Neumann algebra into itself is an inner triple derivation.We examine to what extent all triple derivations of a von Neumann algebra into its predual are inner. This rarely happens but it comes close. We prove a (triple) cohomological characterization of finite factors and a zero-one law for factors. Namely, we show that for any factor, the linea…
We prove that every {\rm(}not necessarily linear nor continuous{\rm)} 2-local triple derivation on a von Neumann algebra $M$ is a triple derivation, equivalently, the set Der$_{t} (M)$, of all triple derivations on $M,$ is algebraically 2-reflexive in the set $\mathcal{M}(M)= M^M$ of all mappings from $M$ into $M$.
In this paper, we investigate homomorphisms between $C^*$-ternary algebras and derivations on $C^*$-ternary algebras, associated with the following functional equation $$f(\frac{x_2-x_1}{3})+f(\frac{x_1-3x_3}{3})+f(\frac{3x_1+3x_3-x_2}{3})=f(x_1).$$ Moreover, we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam -Rassias stability of homomorphisms in $C^*$-ternary algebras and of derivations on $C^*$-ternary algebras.
The present paper presents a survey of some recent results devoted to derivations, local derivations and 2-local derivations on various algebras of measurable operators affiliated with von Neumann algebras. We give a complete description of derivation on these algebras, except the case where the von Neumann algebra is of type II$_1$. In the latter case the result is obtained under an extra condition of measure continuity of derivations. Local and 2-local derivations on the above algebras are also considered. We give sufficient conditions on a von Neumann algebra $M$, under which every local or…
We characterize derivations and 2-local derivations from $M_{n}(\mathcal{A})$ into $M_{n}(\mathcal{M})$, $n \ge 2$, where $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital algebra over $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathcal{M}$ is a unital $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule. We show that every derivation $D: M_{n}(\mathcal{A}) \to M_{n}(\mathcal{M})$, $n \ge 2,$ is the sum of an inner derivation and a derivation induced by a derivation from $\mathcal{A}$ to $\mathcal{M}$. We say that $\mathcal{A}$ commutes with $\mathcal{M}$ if $am=ma$ for every $a\in\mathcal{A}$ and $m\in\mathcal{M}$. If $\mathcal{A}$ commutes with $\mathcal{M}$ we prove t…
In this paper we investigate in details derivations on trivial extension algebras. We obtain generalizations of both known results on derivations on triangular matrix algebras and a known result on first cohomology group of trivial extension algebras. As a consequence we get the characterization of trivial extension algebras on which every derivation is inner. We show that, under some conditions, a trivial extension algebra on which every derivation is inner has necessarily a triangular matrix representation. The paper starts with detailed study (with examples) of the relation between the triv…
We define the notion of invariant derivation of a C*-algebra under a compact quantum group action and prove that in certain conditions, such derivations are generators of one parameter automorphism groups.
In this paper we provide some conditions under which a Lie derivation on a trivial extension algebra is proper, that is, it can be decomposed into the sum of a derivation and a center valued map. We extend some known results on the properness of Lie derivations of triangular algebras. Some illuminating examples are also included.
In the present paper we prove that every additive (not necessarily homogenous) local inner derivation on the algebra of matrices over an arbitrary field is an inner derivation, and every local inner derivation on the ring of matrices over a finite ring generated by the identity element or the ring of integers is an inner derivation. We also prove that every additive local inner derivation on the Jordan algebra of symmetric matrices over an arbitrary field is a derivation, and every local inner derivation on the Jordan ring of symmetric matrices over a finite ring generated by the identity elem…
