$δ$-derivations of simple Jordan algebras and superalgebras (1010.2419v1)

Abstract: We describe non-trivial $\delta$-derivations of semisimple finite-dimensional Jordan algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not 2, and of simple finite-dimensional Jordan superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. For these classes of algebras and superalgebras, non-zero $\delta$-derivations are shown to be missing for $\delta\neq 0,{1}{2},1$, and we give a complete account of ${1}{2}$-derivations.
