Abstract

Preserver problems concern the question of determining or describing the general form of all transformations of a given structure X which preserve "something relevant" for X that can be a

  • a quantity attached to the elements of X, or
  • a distinguished set of elements of X, or
  • a given relation among the elements of X, or
  • a given operation on X, etc.

Such problems arise in most parts of mathematics. They are systematically studied in matrix algebras and recently in infinite dimensional algebras (operator algebras, function algebras), too.

In this talk we first give a general overview of the topic and then present several results concerning preservers on quantum structures (spaces of density operators, observables, and Hilbert space effects).
