Abstract
Let and let be the set of all endomorphisms of the monoid . The set is a monoid with respect to the operation of the function composition . It is shown that is pseudoultrametric-preserving iff . In particular, a function is ultrametrics-preserving iff it is an endomorphism of with kernel consisting only the zero point. We prove that a given is a submonoid of iff there is a class of pseudoultrametric spaces such that coincides with the set of all functions which preserve the spaces from . An explicit construction of such is given.
