Abstract

Let HH be a complex Hilbert space of dimension not less than 33 and let C{\mathcal C} be a conjugacy class of compact self-adjoint operators on HH. Suppose that the dimension of the kernels of operators from C{\mathcal C} not less than the dimension of their ranges. In the case when C{\mathcal C} is formed by operators of finite rank kk and dimH=2k\dim H=2k, we assume that k4k\ge 4. We show that every bijective transformation of C preserving the commutativity in both directions is induced by a unitary or anti-unitary operator up to a permutation of eigenspaces of the same dimension.
