Abstract

For metric spaces X and Y, normed spaces E and F, and certain subspaces A(X, E) and A(Y, F) of vector-valued continuous functions, we obtain a complete characterization of linear and bijective maps \({T:A(X,E)\rightarrow A(Y,F)}\) preserving common zeros, that is, maps satisfying the property

$$Z(f) \cap Z(g) \neq \emptyset \Longleftrightarrow Z(Tf) \cap Z(Tg) \neq \emptyset \quad\quad\quad{\rm (P)}$$

for any \({f, g \in A(X, E)}\), where \({Z(f) = \{x \in X: f(x) = 0\}}\). Moreover, we provide some examples of subspaces for which the automatic continuity of linear bijections having the property (P) is derived.
