Abstract
Let A be an algebra. By a derivation of A we mean a linear mapping δ:D(δ)→A (D(δ) being a subalgebra of A) such that δ(ab) = =aδ(b)+δ(a)b for all a,bεD(δ). A derivation δ of A is said to be inner if there exists aOεA such that δ(a)=aOa−aaO (=ad(aO) (a)) for all aεD(δ). If A is a *-algebra, a derivation δ:D(δ)→A is called symmetric if a) D(δ) is a *-subalgebra of A, and b)δ (a*)=δ(a)* for all aεD(δ).
