Let R be a prime ring of char R = 0 or char R > 2 n and let d : R → Q m s (R) be an additive map such that d (x 2 n) = d (x n) x n + x n d (x n) for all x ∈ R , where n is a positive integer and Q m s (R) is the maximal symmetric ring of quotients of R. It is shown that there exist a derivation δ : R → Q m s (R) and an additive map μ : R → Q m s (R) with μ (x n) = 0 for all x ∈ R , such that d = δ + μ. This result is a natural generalization of the classic theorem of Herstein for Jordan derivations on prime rings. Moreover, it gives a purely algebraic version of the theorem recently obtained by Kosi-Ulbl, Rodriguez and Vukman for standard operator algebras on Banach spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
