TWO METHODS OF DESCRIBING 2-LOCAL DERIVATIONS AND AUTOMORPHISMS

Abstract

In the present paper, we investigate 2-local linear operators on vector spaces. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the linearity of a 2-local linear operator on a finite-dimensional vector space. To do this, families of matrices of a certain type are selected and it is proved that every 2-local linear operator generated by these families is a linear operator. Based on these results we prove that each 2-local derivation of a finite-dimensional null-filiform Zinbiel algebra is a derivation. Also, we develop a method of construction of 2-local linear operators which are not linear operators. To this end, we select matrices of a certain type and using these matrices we construct a 2-local linear operator. If these matrices are distinct, then the 2-local linear operator constructed using these matrices is not a linear operator. Applying this method we prove that each finite-dimensional filiform Zinbiel algebra has a 2-local derivation that is not a derivation. We also prove that each finite-dimensional naturally graded quasi-filiform Leibniz algebras of type I has a 2-local automorphism that is not an automorphism
