Abstract

The problem of automatic additivity of Jordan type homomorphisms has received a great deal of attention in theory of operator algebras as well in ring theory. We study additivity of quadratic maps, that is the maps between Jordan Banach algebras that preserve the quadratic product (a, b) → aba. The main result shows that any continuous quadratic bijective map between unital Jordan Banach algebras that is linear on associative subalgebras is automatically additive. This contributes to the Borification program in quantum theory and Mackey-Gleason problem on linearity of quasi-linear maps.
