Abstract

We characterize all compact and Hausdorff spaces XX which satisfy that for every multiplicative bijection ϕ\phi on C(X,I)C(X, I), there exist a homeomorphism μ:XX\mu : X \to X and a continuous map p:X(0,+)p: X \to (0, +\infty) such that ϕ(f)(x)=f(μ(x))p(x)\phi (f) (x) = f(\mu (x))^{p(x)} for every fC(X,I)f \in C(X,I) and xXx \in X. This allows us to disprove a conjecture of Marovt (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. {\bf 134} (2006), 1065-1075). Some related results on other semigroups of functions are also given.
