[Abstract-pdf]

Let $L$ be a Lie algebra and let $A$ be an associative commutative algebra with unity, both over the same field $F$. We consider the following two questions. Is every skew-symmetric biderivation on the current Lie algebra $L\otimes A$ of the form $(x,y) \mapsto \lambda([x,y])$ for some $\gamma \in {\rm Cent}(L\otimes A)$, if the same holds true for $L$? Does every commuting linear map of $L\otimes A$ belong to ${\rm Cent}(L\otimes A)$, if the same holds true for $L$?

Keywords: Lie algebra, current Lie algebra, tensor product of algebras, biderivation, commuting linear map, centroid.
