Biderivations of finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras

In this paper, we prove that a biderivation of a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra without the restriction of being skewsymmetric is an inner biderivation. As an application, the biderivation of a general linear Lie algebra is presented. In particular, we find a class of a non-inner and non-skewsymmetric biderivations. Furthermore, we also obtain the forms of the linear commuting maps on the finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra or general linear Lie algebra.
