Linear Maps Preserving Invertibility or Spectral Radius on Some $C^{*}$-algebras

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...

Invertibility Preserving Linear Maps of Banach Algebras

This talk discusses a conjecture of R. V. Kadison and myself. Our conjecture is that each one-to-one linear map of one unital C*-algebra onto another that preserves the identity is a Jordan isomorphism if it maps the invertible elements of the first C*-algebra onto the invertible elements of the other C*-algebra. Connections are shown between this conjecture and Cartan’s uniqueness theorem. 1. ...

Linear maps preserving or strongly preserving majorization on matrices

For $A,Bin M_{nm},$ we say that $A$ is left matrix majorized (resp. left matrix submajorized) by $B$ and write $Aprec_{ell}B$ (resp. $Aprec_{ell s}B$), if $A=RB$ for some $ntimes n$ row stochastic (resp. row substochastic) matrix $R.$ Moreover, we define the relation $sim_{ell s} $ on $M_{nm}$ as follows: $Asim_{ell s} B$ if $Aprec_{ell s} Bprec_{ell s} A.$ This paper characterizes all linear p...

A Survey of Invertibility and Spectrum Preserving Linear Maps

Spectrum Preserving Linear Maps Between Banach Algebras

In this paper we show that if A is a unital Banach algebra and B is a purely innite C*-algebra such that has a non-zero commutative maximal ideal and $phi:A rightarrow B$ is a unital surjective spectrum preserving linear map. Then $phi$ is a Jordan homomorphism.

Invertibility-preserving Maps of C∗-algebras with Real Rank Zero

In 1996, Harris and Kadison posed the following problem: show that a linear bijection between C∗-algebras that preserves the identity and the set of invertible elements is a Jordan isomorphism. In this paper, we show that if A and B are semisimple Banach algebras andΦ : A→ B is a linear map onto B that preserves the spectrum of elements, thenΦ is a Jordan isomorphism if either A or B is a C∗-al...
