The classical Mazur--Ulam theorem which states that every surjective isometry between real normed spaces is affine is not valid for non-Archimedean normed spaces. In this paper, we establish a Mazur--Ulam theorem in the non-Archimedean…

We prove that every commutative JB$^*$-triple satisfies the complex Mazur--Ulam property. Thanks to the representation theory, we can identify commutative JB$^*$-triples as spaces of complex-valued continuous functions on a principal…

The classical Mazur-Ulam theorem establishes that every surjective isometry between normed real vector spaces is an affine transformation. In various applied mathematical settings, however, one encounters maps that preserve distances not…

Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $H$ be a real or complex Hilbert space with dim$(H_\mathbb{R})\geq 2$. We prove that the space $C(K,H)$ of all $H$-valued continuous functions on $K$, equipped with the supremum norm, satisfies…

The principal result in this note is a strengthened version of Kadison's transitivity theorem for unital JB$^*$-algebras, showing that for each minimal tripotent $e$ in the bidual, $\mathfrak{A}^{**}$, of a unital JB$^*$-algebra…

We study $C$-rich spaces, lush spaces, and $C$-extremely regular spaces concerning with the Mazur-Ulam property. We show that a uniform algebra and the real part of a uniform algebra with the supremum norm are $C$-rich spaces, hence lush…

It was proved by S. Mazur and S. Ulam in 1932 that every isometric surjection between normed real vector spaces is affine. We generalize the Mazur--Ulam theorem and find necessary and sufficient conditions under which distance-preserving…

We prove that, if the closed unit ball of a normed space $X$ has sufficiently many extreme points, then every mapping $\Phi$ from $X$ into itself with the following property is affine: For any pair of points in $X$, there exists a (not…

In this paper we show how some metric properties of the unit sphere of a normed space can help to approach a solution to Tingley's problem. In our main result we show that if an onto isometry between the spheres of strictly convex spaces is…

Let $M$ and $N$ be two unital JB$^*$-algebras and let $\mathcal{U} (M)$ and $\mathcal{U} (N)$ denote the sets of all unitaries in $M$ and $N$, respectively. We prove that the following statements are equivalent: $(a)$ $M$ and $N$ are…

We prove that von Neumann algebras and separable nuclear $C^*$-algebras are stable for the Banach-Mazur cb-distance. A technical step is to show that unital almost completely isometric maps between $C^*$-algebras are almost multiplicative…

A Banach space $X$ has the $Mazur$-$Ulam$ $property$ if any isometry from the unit sphere of $X$ onto the unit sphere of any other Banach space $Y$ extends to a linear isometry of the Banach spaces $X,Y$. A Banach space $X$ is called…
