Abstract
Let T be a linear transformation on Mn the set of all n × n matrices over the field of complex numbers, . Let A ∈ Mn have eigenvalues λ1, …, λn and let Er(A) denote the rth elementary symmetric function of the eigenvalues of A :Equivalently, Er(A) is the sum of all the principal r × r subdeterminants of A. T is said to preserve Er if Er[T(A)] = Er(A) for all A ∈ Mn. Marcus and Purves [3, Theorem 3.1] showed that for r ≧ 4, if T preserves Er then T is essentially a similarity transformation; that is, either T: A → UAV for all A ∈ Mn or T: A → UAtV for all A ∈ Mn, where UV = eiθIn, rθ ≡ 0 (mod 2π).
