Additivity of maps on triangular algebras

Elementary Maps on Triangular Algebras

In this note we prove that elementary surjective maps on triangular algebras are automatically additive. The study of elementary maps was initiated by Brešar and Šerml. Following ([1]), elementary maps are defined as follows. Definition 1. Let R and R be two rings. Suppose that M : R → R and M : R → R are two maps. Call the ordered pair (M,M) an elementary map of R×R if

Additivity of maps preserving Jordan $eta_{ast}$-products on $C^{*}$-algebras

Let $mathcal{A}$ and $mathcal{B}$ be two $C^{*}$-algebras such that $mathcal{B}$ is prime. In this paper, we investigate the additivity of maps $Phi$ from $mathcal{A}$ onto $mathcal{B}$ that are bijective, unital and satisfy $Phi(AP+eta PA^{*})=Phi(A)Phi(P)+eta Phi(P)Phi(A)^{*},$ for all $Ainmathcal{A}$ and $Pin{P_{1},I_{mathcal{A}}-P_{1}}$ where $P_{1}$ is a nontrivial projection in $mathcal{A...

On Preserving Properties of Linear Maps on $C^{*}$-algebras

Let $A$ and $B$ be two unital $C^{*}$-algebras and $varphi:A rightarrow B$ be a linear map. In this paper, we investigate the structure of linear maps between two $C^{*}$-algebras that preserve a certain property or relation. In particular, we show that if $varphi$ is unital, $B$ is commutative and $V(varphi(a)^{*}varphi(b))subseteq V(a^{*}b)$ for all $a,bin A$, then $varphi$ is a $*$-homomorph...
