A generalization of a theorem of Chernoff on standard operator algebras
2021
Let X be a real or complex Banach space, let $${\mathcal {A}}$$
be a standard operator algebra on X, let n be a positive integer, and let $$D:{\mathcal {A}}\rightarrow {\mathcal {L}} (X)$$
be a linear mapping such that the equality $$D(A^{2n})=D(A^n)A^n+A^nD(A^n)$$
holds for every $$A\in {\mathcal {A}}$$
. We prove that D can be written in a unique way as $$D=D_1+D_0$$
where $$D_1:{\mathcal {A}}\rightarrow {\mathcal {L}} (X)$$
is of the form $$A\rightarrow AB-BA$$
for some $$B\in {\mathcal {L}} (X)$$
, and $$D_0:{\mathcal {A}}\rightarrow {\mathcal {L}} (X)$$
is a linear mapping such that $$D_0(A^n)=0$$
for every $$A\in {\mathcal {A}}$$
. The case $$n=1$$
of this result refines a theorem of Chernoff.
