Centralizers on Prime and Semiprime Gamma Rings

Abstract

Let $M$ be a noncommutative 2-torsion free semiprime $\Gamma$-ring satisfying a certain assumption and let $S$ and $T$ be left centralizers on $M$. We prove the following results: \\(i) If $[S(x),T(x)]_{\alpha }\beta S(x)+S(x)\beta [S(x),T(x)]_{\alpha }$=$0$ holds for all $x\in M$ and $\alpha ,\beta \in \Gamma $, then $[S(x),T(x)]_{\alpha }$=$0$. \\(ii) If $S\neq 0 (T\neq 0)$, then there exists $\lambda \in C$,(the extended centroid of $M$) such that $T$=$\lambda \alpha S(S=\lambda \alpha T)$ for all $\alpha \in \Gamma $. \\(iii) Suppose that $[[S(x),T(x)]_{\alpha },S(x)]_{\beta }$=$0$ holds for all $x\in M$ and $\alpha ,\beta \in\Gamma $. Then $[S(x),T(x)]_{\alpha }$=$0$ for all $x\in M$ and $\alpha \in\Gamma $. \\(iv) If $M$ is a prime $\Gamma $-ring satisfying a certain assumption and $S\neq 0(T\neq 0)$, then there exists $\lambda \in C$, the extended centroid, such that $T$=$\lambda \alpha S(S=\lambda \alpha T)$.
