Let F be an algebraically closed field and $T : M_{n}(F) \longrightarrow M_{n}(F)$ be a linear transformation. In this paper we show that if T preserves at least one ...

Let [ Mn(C) ] denote the set of linear maps from the n × n complex matrices into themselves and let $\hat\Omega_n$ denote the set of complex doubly stochastic matrices, i.e. complex matrices whose row ...
