Let R be a prime ring with char(R)≠2. A biadditive symmetric map Δ: R×R → R is called symmetric (α, β)-biderivation if, for any fixed y ∈ R, the map x ↦ Δ(x,y) is a (α, β)-derivation. A symmetric biadditive map Γ : R×R → R is a symmetric generalized (α, β)-biderivation if for any fixed y ∈ R, the map x ↦ Γ(x,y) is a generalized (α, β)-derivation of R associated with the (α, β)-derivation Δ(.,y). In the present paper, we investigate the commutativity of a ring having a generalized (α, β)-biderivation satisfying certain algebraic conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let R be a *-prime ring with characteristic different from two and U ≠ 0 be a square closed *-Lie ideal of R. An additive mapping F : R → R is called an generalized derivation if there exits a derivation d : R → R such that F(xy) = F(x)y+xd(y). In the present paper, it is shown that U ⊆ Z if R is a *-prime ring which admits a generalized derivation satisfying several conditions that are associated with a derivation commuting with *.
