Nonlinear $*$-Jordan-type derivations on alternative $*$-algebras

Abstract: Let $A$ be an unital alternative $$-algebra. Assume that $A$ contains a nontrivial symmetric idempotent element $e$ which satisfies $xA \cdot e = 0$ implies $x = 0$ and $xA \cdot (1_A - e) = 0$ implies $x = 0$. In this paper, it is shown that $\Phi$ is a nonlinear $$-Jordan-type derivation on A if and only if $\Phi$ is an additive $$-derivation. As application, we get a result on alternative $W^{}$-algebras.
