The paper deals with groups of invertible linear transformations on matrices preserving some property. Let \(F\) be an infinite field. The main result is: if an invertible transformation of \(M_ n(F)\) preserves a finite union of similarity classes, then the transformation is essentially a conjugation. This relies heavily on results about maximal subgroups of algebraic groups.
