A note on local commutators in division rings with involution
In this paper, we consider a conjecture of I. N. Herstein for local commutators of symmetric elements and unitary elements of division rings. For example, we show that if $D$ is a finite dimensional division ring with involution $\star$ and if $a\in D^*=D\backslash\{0\}$ such that local commutators...

Summary: | In this paper, we consider a conjecture of I. N. Herstein for local commutators of symmetric elements and unitary elements of division rings. For example, we show that if $D$ is a finite dimensional division ring with involution $\star$ and if $a\in D^*=D\backslash\{0\}$ such that local commutators $axa^{-1}x^{-1}$ at $a$ are radical over the center $F$ of $D$ for every $x\in D^*$ with $x^\star=x$, then either $a\in F$ or $\dim_{F}D= 4$.
