A note on $n$-Jordan homomorphisms

Abstract

By using a variation of a theorem on $n$-Jordan homomorphisms due to Herstein, we deduce the following G. An's result: Let $ A $ and $ B $ be two rings where $ A $ has a unit and $ char(B)> n. $ If every Jordan homomorphism from $ A $ into $ B $ is a homomorphism (anti-homomorphism), then every $n$-Jordan homomorphism from $ A $ into $ B $ is an $n$-homomorphism (anti-$n$-homomorphism).
