Abstract

We find the structure of b-generalized derivations on Martindale ring of quotients. In fact, we establish that if left b-generalized derivations act as homomorphisms and anti-homomorphisms on semiprime rings R, then R will be commutative under some specific condition. Our proof is motivated by the existing classical theory about ordinary derivation presented in [12].
