Hans Havlicek, Peter Šemrl

Abstract

We characterize bijections on matrix spaces (operator algebras) preserving full rank (invertibility) of differences of matrix (operator) pairs in both directions.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let ${\mathbb F}$ be a field with at least three elements and $m,n$ integers with $m\ge n \ge 2$. Assume that $\phi : M_{m,n} \to M_{m,n}$ is a bijective map such that for every pair $A,B \in M_{m,n}$ we have $A\mathbin{\triangle} B$ if and only if $\phi (A) \mathbin{\triangle} \phi (B)$. Then the for every $A\in M_{m,n}$. If $m=n$, then we have the additional possibility that where $T,S,R \in
