We study maps between positive definite or positive semidefinite cones of unital $C^*$-algebras. We describe surjective maps that preserve (1) the norm of the quotient or multiplication of elements; (2) the spectrum of the quotient or…

We study new classes of linear preservers between C$^*$-algebras and JB$^*$-triples. Let $E$ and $F$ be JB$^*$-triples with $\partial_{e} (E_1)$. We prove that every linear map $T:E\to F$ strongly preserving Brown-Pedersen quasi-invertible…

Recently, the question of whether surjective maps preserving the norm of a symmetric Kubo-Ando mean can be extended to Jordan $\ast$-isomorphisms has been tackled. The question was affirmatively answered for surjective maps between…

We give a structural characterisation of linear operators from one $C^\ast$% -algebra into another whose adjoints map extreme points of the dual ball onto extreme points. We show that up to a $\ast$-isomorphism, such a map admits of a…

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ and $\mathfrak{A}'$ be two $C^*$-algebras with identities $I_{\mathfrak{A}}$ and $I_{\mathfrak{A}'}$, respectively, and $P_1$ and $P_2 = I_{\mathfrak{A}} - P_1$ nontrivial projections in $\mathfrak{A}$. In this paper we…

We prove that unital surjective spectral isometries on certain non-simple unital C*-algebras are Jordan isomorphisms. Along the way, we establish several general facts in the setting of semisimple Banach algebras.

We classify spectrum-preserving endomorphisms of stable continuous-trace C^*-algebras up to inner automorphism by a surjective multiplicative invariant taking values in finite dimensional vector bundles over the spectrum. Specializing to…

We prove that every surjective unital linear mapping which preserves invertible elements from a Banach algebra onto a C*-algebra carrying a faithful tracial state is a Jordan homomorphism thus generalising Aupetit's 1998 result for finite…

We study holomorphic maps between C$^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$. When $f:B_A (0,\varrho) \longrightarrow B$ is a holomorphic mapping whose Taylor series at zero is uniformly converging in some open unit ball $U=B_{A}(0,\delta)$ and we assume…

We prove that for a bijective, unital, linear map between absolute order unit spaces is an isometry if, and only if, it is absolute value preserving. We deduce that, on (unital) $JB$-algebras, such maps are precisely Jordan isomorphisms.…

This paper is, in a first stage, devoted to establish a topological--algebraic characterization of the principal component, $\mathcal{U}^0 (M)$, of the set of unitary elements, $\mathcal{U} (M)$, in a unital JB$^*$-algebra $M$. We arrive to…

Let T be be a zero-product preserving bounded linear map between C*-algebras A and B. Here neither A nor B is necessarily unital. In this note, we investigate when T gives rise to a Jordan homomorphism. In particular, we show that A and B…

Let A and A' be two alternative *-algebras with identities 1_A and 1_A', respectively, and e_1 and e_2 = 1_A - e_1 nontrivial symmetric idempotents in A. In this paper we study the characterization of multiplicative *-Jordan-type maps on…

We study surjective maps between the positive cones of the Wiener algebra that preserve the spectrum of the sum of every two elements. We show that such maps can be extended to isometric real-linear isomorphisms of the Wiener algebra.

It is shown that every linear surjective isometry between two right, full, Hilbert C*-modules is a sum of two maps : a (bi-) module map (which is completely isometric and preserves the inner product) and a map that reverses the (bi-) module…

In this note, we will discuss what kind of operators between C*-algebras preserves Jordan triple products {a,b,c}= (ab*c + cb*a)/2. These include especially isometries and disjointness preserving operators.

We consider problems associated with the computation of spectra of self-adjoint operators in terms of the eigenvalue distributions of their n x n sections. Under rather general circumstances, we show how these eigenvalues accumulate near…

Let A and A' be two Cstar-algebras with identities I_A and I_A', respectively, and P_1 and P_2 = I_A - P_1 nontrivial projections in A. In this paper we study the characterization of multiplicative star-Lie-Jordan-type maps, where the…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$\ are $C^{{\huge \ast}}% $-algebras\textbf{.} A\textbf{ }linear map $\phi:\mathcal{A\rightarrow B}$ is $C^{\ast}$-Jordan homomorphism if it is a Jordan homomorphism which preserves the adjoint operation.…

We investigate orthonormality-preserving, C*-conformal and conformal module mappings on Hilbert C*-modules to obtain their general structure. Orthogonality-preserving bounded module maps T act as a multiplication by an element \lambda of…
