  • Let R be a commutative ring with identity 1, n ≥ 3, and let 𝒯n(R) be the linear Lie algebra of all upper triangular n × n matrices over R. A linear map 𝜑 on 𝒯n(R) is called to be strong commutativity preserving if [𝜑(x), 𝜑(y)] = [x, y] for any x, y ∈ 𝒯n(R). We show that an invertible linear map 𝜑 preserves strong commutativity on 𝒯n(R) if and only if it is a composition of an idempotent scalar multiplication, an extremal inner automorphism and a linear map induced by a linear function on 𝒯n(R).
