Study of Generalized Derivations in Rings with Involution

Let R be a prime ring with involution of the second kind and centre Z(R). Suppose R admits a generalized derivation $F:R{\rightarrow}R$ associated with a derivation $d:R{\rightarrow}R$. The purpose of this paper is to study the commutativity of a prime ring R satisfying any one of the following identities: (i) $F(x){\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (ii) $F([x,x^*]){\pm}x{\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (iii) $F(x{\circ}x^*){\pm}[x,x^*]{\in}Z(R)$ (iv) $F(x){\circ}d(x^*){\pm}x{\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (v) $[F(x),d(x^*)]{\pm}x{\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (vi) $F(x){\pm}x{\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (vii) $F(x){\pm}[x,x^*]{\in}Z(R)$ (viii) $[F(x),x^*]{\mp}F(x){\circ}x^*{\in}Z(R)$ (ix) $F(x{\circ}x^*){\in}Z(R)$ for all $x{\in}R$.
