Abstract

Let R be a prime ring with char R ≠ 2, L a non-central Lie ideal of R, d, g non-zero derivations of R, n ≥ 1 a fixed integer. We prove that if (d(x)x − xg(x))n = 0 for all xL, then either d = g = 0 or R satisfies the standard identity s 4 and d, g are inner derivations, induced respectively by the elements a and b such that a + bZ(R).
