Term rank preservers of bisymmetric matrices over semirings

Abstract

Abstract In this article, we introduce another standard form of linear preservers. This new standard form provides characterizations of the linear transformations on the set of bisymmetric matrices with zero diagonal and zero antidiagonal over antinegative semirings without zero divisors which preserve some sort of term ranks and preserve the matrix that can be determined as the greatest one. The numbers of all possible linear transformations satisfying each condition are also obtained.
