Abstract

We describe strong commutativity preservers on the algebra of infinite upper triangular matrices over a field F such that char\({(F) \neq 2}\). We show that every such map is some kind of a sum of a few sorts of maps. We also discuss the form of the maps that preserve commutativity in both directions.
