Description of Derivations on Measurable Operator Algebras of Type I

Abstract

Given a type I von Neumann algebra $M$ with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $τ,$ let $L(M, τ)$ be the algebra of all $τ$-measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ We give a complete description of all derivations on the algebra $L(M, τ).$ In particular, we prove that if $M$ is of type I$_\infty$ then every derivation on $L(M, τ)$ is inner.
