Abstract
This paper solves a Tingley’s type problem in n-normed spaces and states that for \(n\ge 2\), every n-isometry on the unit sphere of an n-normed space is an n-isometry on the whole space except the origin 0. Also, using analytical approach we give a short proof to show that for \(n\ge 3\), any mapping which preserves n-norms of values one and zero is, up to pointwise multiplication by \(\pm 1\)-, a linear n-isometry. This gives a Wigner-type theorem in n-normed spaces which was proven in a recent paper.
