Angle preserving mappings

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this paper, we give some characterizations of orthogonality preserving mappings between inner product spaces. Furthermore, we study the linear mappings that preserve some angles. One of our main results states that if mathcalX,mathcalY are real inner product spaces and hetain(0,pi), then an injective nonzero linear mapping T:mathcalXlongrightarrowmathcalY is a similarity whenever (i) xundersethetaangley,Leftrightarrow,TxundersethetaangleTy for all x,yinmathcalX; (ii) for all x,yinmathcalX, |x|=|y| and xundersethetaangley ensure that |Tx|=|Ty|. We also investigate orthogonality preserving mappings in the setting of inner product C-modules. Another result shows that if mathbbK(mathscrH)subseteqmathscrAsubseteqmathbbB(mathscrH) is a C-algebra and T,:mathscrElongrightarrowmathscrF is an mathscrA-linear mapping between inner product mathscrA-modules, then T is orthogonality preserving if and only if |x|leq|y|,Rightarrow,|Tx|leq|Ty| for all x,yinmathscrE.
