Abstract
Let \(\mathfrak {A}\) be a unital ring with a nontrivial idempotent. In this paper, it is shown that under certain conditions every multiplicative generalized Lie n-derivation \(\Delta :\mathfrak {A}\rightarrow \mathfrak {A}\) is of the form \(\Delta (u)=zu+\delta (u),\) where \(z\in \mathcal {Z}(\mathfrak {A})\) and \(\delta :\mathfrak {A}\rightarrow \mathfrak {A}\) is a multiplicative Lie n-derivation. The main result is then applied to some classical examples of unital rings with nontrivial idempotents such as triangular rings, matrix rings, nest algebras, and algebras of bounded linear operators.
