Abstract

In this paper we prove the following result: Let R be a prime ring with \(char(R)\ne 2,3,5\) and let \(T:R\rightarrow R\) be an additive mapping satisfying the relation \( T(x^{4})=xT(x^2)x\) for all \(x\in R\). In this case T is of the form \(T(x)=\lambda x\) for all \(x\in R\) and some fixed element \(\lambda \in C\), where C is the extended centroid of R.
