Abstract: This paper proved Vukman's conjecture concerning the image of a linear derivation on a Banach algebra, gave some sufficient conditions that the image of a linear derivation on complex Banach algebra was in the Jacobson radical, and also discussed the simpleorm of a linear derivation on an annihilator Banach algebra.

Key words: minimal prime ideal, Jacobson radical, linear derivation, minimal prime ideal, Jacobson radical
