Abstract

The objective of this paper is to study Jordan -mappings in rings with involution . In
particular, we prove that if R is a prime ring with involution , of characteristic different from 2 and
D is a nonzero Jordan -derivation of R such that ½DðxÞ; x ¼ 0, for all x 2 R and
SðRÞ \ ZðRÞ – ð0Þ, then R is commutative. Further, we also prove a similar result in the setting
of Jordan left -derivation. Finally, we prove that any symmetric Jordan triple -biderivation on
a 2-torsion free semiprime ring with involution  is a symmetric Jordan -biderivation
