A Review of Ring Derivations

Exploring the Links Between Derivations and Ring Structure

Abstract

Because it brings together so many different branches of mathematics, ring theory is aneffective instrument for examining problems of great historical and scientific relevance. To put it anotherway, the concept of a derivational ring is not one that undergoes dramatic conceptualtransformations. Over the last fifty years, however, several researchers have examined the linksbetween derivations and ring structure. This paper present a brief review of ring derivations such ashistorical note following, chronological development, posner’s theorems, types of rings.
