Abstract

We first give several polynomial identities of semiprime rings which make the additive mappings appearing in the identities to be generalized derivations. Then we study pairs of generalized Jordan derivations on prime rings. Let be fixed positive integers, be a noncommutative -torsion free prime ring with the center and be a pair of generalized Jordan derivations on . If for all , then and are left (or right) multipliers. In particular, if , are a pair of derivations on satisfying the same assumption, then . Then applying these purely algebraic result we obtain several range inclusion results of pair of derivations on Banach algebras.
