Let A be a Banach algebra and X be a Banach A-bimodule. A mapping D : A −→ X is a cubic derivation if D is a cubic homogeneous mapping, that is D is cubic and D(λa) = λ 3 D(a) for any complex number λ and all a ∈ A, and D(ab) = D(a) · b 3 + a 3 · D(b) for all a, b ∈ A. In this paper, we prove the stability of a cubic derivation with direct method. We also employ a fixed point method to establish of the stability and the superstability for cubic derivations.
