Abstract: Let mathcalG be a generalized matrix algebra over a commutative ring mathcalR, mathfrakqcolonmathcalGimesmathcalGlongrightarrowmathcalG be an mathcalR-bilinear mapping and mathfrakTmathfrakqcolon:mathcalGlongrightarrowmathcalG be a trace of mathfrakq. We describe the form of mathfrakTmathfrakq satisfying the condition mathfrakTmathfrakq(G)G=GmathfrakTmathfrakq(G) for all GinmathcalG. The question of when mathfrakTmathfrakq has the proper form is considered. Using the aforementioned trace function, we establish sufficient conditions for each Lie isomorphism of mathcalG to be almost standard. As applications we characterize Lie isomorphisms of full matrix algebras, of triangular algebras and of certain unital algebras with nontrivial idempotents. Some further research topics related to current work are proposed at the end of this article.
