Let $A$ and $B$ be Banach algebras with bounded approximate identities and let $\Phi:A\to B$ be a surjective continuous linear map which preserves two-sided zero products (i.e., $\Phi(a)\Phi(b)=\Phi(b)\Phi(a)=0$ whenever $ab=ba=0$). We show…

While Jordan algebras are commutative, their non-associativity makes it so that the Jordan product operators do not necessarily commute. When the product operators of two elements commute, the elements are said to operator commute. In some…
