Abstract

Let I(X,K)I(X,K) be the incidence algebra of a finite connected poset XX over a field KK and D(X,K)D(X,K) its subalgebra consisting of diagonal elements. We describe the bijective linear maps φ:I(X,K)I(X,K)\varphi:I(X,K)\to I(X,K) that strongly preserve the commutativity and satisfy φ(D(X,K))=D(X,K)\varphi(D(X,K))=D(X,K). We prove that such a map φ\varphi is a composition of a commutativity preserver of shift type and a commutativity preserver associated to a quadruple (θ,σ,c,κ)(\theta,\sigma,c,\kappa) of simpler maps θ\theta, σ\sigma, cc and a sequence κ\kappa of elements of KK.
