Abstract

We establish spherical variants of the Gleason-Kahane-Zelazko and Kowalski-S{\l}odkowski theorems, and we apply them to prove that every weak-2-local isometry between two uniform algebras is a linear map. Among the consequences, we solve a couple of problems posed by O. Hatori, T. Miura, H. Oka and H. Takagi in 2007. Another application is given in the setting of weak-2-local isometries between Lipschitz algebras by showing that given two metric spaces EE and FF such that the set Iso((Lip(E),.),(Lip(F),.))((\hbox{Lip}(E),\|.\|),(\hbox{Lip}(F),\|.\|)) is canonical, then every\hyphenation{every} weak-2-local Iso((Lip(E),.),(Lip(F),.))((\hbox{Lip}(E),\|.\|),(\hbox{Lip}(F),\|.\|))-map Δ\Delta from Lip(E)\hbox{Lip}(E) to Lip(F)\hbox{Lip}(F) is a linear map, where .\|.\| can indistinctly stand for fL:=max{L(f),f}\|f\|_{_L} := \max\{L(f), \|f\|_{\infty} \} or fs:=L(f)+f. \|f\|_{_s} := L(f) + \|f\|_{\infty}.
