Abstract Given Banach spaces $\Cal{X}$ and $\Cal{Y}$ and
Banach space operators $A\in L(\Cal{X})$ and $B\in L(\Cal{Y})$,
the generalized derivation $\delta_{A,B} \in
L(L(\Cal{Y},\Cal{X}))$ is defined by
$\delta_{A,B}(X)=(L_{A}-R_{B})(X)=AX-XB$. This paper is concerned
with the problem of transferring the left polaroid property, from
operators $A$ and $B^{*}$ to the generalized derivation
$\delta_{A,B}$. As a consequence, we give necessary and sufficient
conditions for $\delta_{A,B}$ to satisfy generalized a-Browder's
theorem and generalized a-Weyl's theorem. As an application, we
extend some recent results concerning Weyl-type theorems.
