Abstract

In this paper, we give some basic properties of the generalized derivation algebra GDer(L) of a Lie color algebra L. In particular, we prove that GDer(L) = QDer(L) + QC(L), the sum of the quasiderivation algebra and the quasicentroid. We also prove that QDer(L) can be embedded as derivations in a larger Lie color algebra.
