Abstract
We show that every injective Jordan semi-triple map on the algebra Mn(F) of all n × n matrices with entries in a field F (i.e. a map Φ:Mn(F)→Mn(F) satisfyingΦ(ABA)=Φ(A)Φ(B)Φ(A)for every A and B in Mn(F)) is given by a map of the following form: there exist σ∈F, σ = ±1, an injective homomorphism φ of F and an invertible T∈Mn(F) such that eitherΦ(A)=σT- 1AφTforallA∈Mn(F),orΦ(A)=σT-1AφtTforallA∈Mn(F).Here, Aφ is the image of A under φ applied entrywise.
