Characterization of Lie multiplicative isomorphisms between nest algebras (Q424897)

Let \(\mathcal {A}\) and \(\mathcal {A}^{\prime }\) be two algebras. A map \(\Phi :\mathcal {A}\to \mathcal {A}^{\prime }\) is called a Lie multiplicative map if \(\Phi ([A, B])=[\Phi (A), B]+[A, \Phi (B)]\) for any \(A, B\in \mathcal {A}\), where \([A, B]=AB-BA\) is the usual Lie product. Moreover, if \(\Phi \) is both bijective and linear additionally, then \(\Phi \) is called a Lie isomorphism. This paper is devoted to the characterization of Lie multiplicative maps on nest algebras. Let \({\text{Alg}}\mathcal{N}\) and \(\text{Alg}\mathcal{M}\) be two nest algebras, where \(\mathcal{N}\) and \(\mathcal{M}\) are nests in Banach spaces \(X\) and \(Y\) over the real or complex field \(\mathbb{F}\), respectively, with the property that, if \(M \in \mathcal{M}\) such that \(M _{ - } = M\), then \(M\) is complemented in \(Y\). Assume that there is a nontrivial element in \(\mathcal{N}\) which is complemented in \(X\) and \(\Phi :\text{Alg}\mathcal{N} \to \text{Alg}\mathcal{M}\) is a bijective map. Then \(\Phi \) is Lie multiplicative if and only if \(\Phi \) is of the form \(\Psi +\tau \), where \(\Psi :\text{Alg}\mathcal{N} \to \text{Alg}\mathcal{M}\) is a ring isomorphism or the negative of a ring anti-isomorphism and \(\tau:\mathrm{Alg}\mathcal {N}\to \mathbb {F}I\) is a map satisfying \(\tau ([A, B])=0\) for all \(A, B\in\mathrm{Alg}\mathcal {N}\).
