Abstract

In this paper, we investigate local derivations and local generalized derivations on path algebras associated with finite acyclic quivers. We show that every local derivation on a path algebra is a derivation, and every local generalized derivation on a path algebra is a generalized derivation. Also, we apply main results on several related maps to local derivations. The established results generalize several ones on some known algebras such as incidence algebras.
