Motivated by the powerful and elegant works of Miers (1971, 1973, 1978) we mainly study nonlinear Lie-type derivations of von Neumann algebras. Let 𝓐 be a von Neumann algebra without abelian central summands of type I₁. It is shown that every nonlinear Lie n-derivation of 𝓐 has the standard form, that is, can be expressed as a sum of an additive derivation and a central-valued mapping which annihilates each (n-1)th commutator of 𝓐. Several potential research topics related to our work are also presented.
