Abstract
Let \(\mathcal {A}\) and \(\mathcal {B}\) be two unital \(C^*\)-algebras. It is shown that if a surjective map \( \Phi : \mathcal {A} \rightarrow \mathcal {B}\) satisfies:
for every \(A,B \in \mathcal {A}\), and if \( \Phi \) is injective or \( \Phi (-I)=-I \), then \(\Phi \) is the direct sum of two \(*\)-homomorphisms, one of which is \({\mathbb {C}}\)-linear and the other is conjugate \({\mathbb {C}}\)-linear.
