Let N be a nest on a Banach space X,and AlgN be the associated nest algebra.It is shown that,if there exists a non-trivial element N in N which is complemented in X and dim N = 1,then every additive biderivation from AlgN into itself is an inner biderivation.Based on this result,we give characterizations of centralizing(commuting) maps,cocentralizing derivations,and cocommuting generalized derivations on nest algebras.
