Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to prove the following result. Let n≥3 be some fixed integer and let R be a (n+1)!2n-2-torsion free semiprime unital ring. Suppose there exists an additive mapping D: R→ R satisfying the relation
for all x ∈ R. In this case D is a derivation. The history of this result goes back to a classical result of Herstein, which states that any Jordan derivation on a 2-torsion free prime ring is a derivation.
