Abstract

Chi-Kwang Li, Bit-Shun Tam and Nam-Kiu Tsing have obtained necessary and sufficient condition  for a linear operator on linear space of generalized doubly stochastic matrices to be strong preserver of doubly stochastic matrices and permutation matrices.
    We show if a linear operator $T:M_m\rightarrow M_n$ is a (strong) preserver of doubly stochastic matrices, then $T$ is a (strong) preserver of the linear manifold of r-generalized doubly stochastic matrices and the linear space of generalized doubly stochastic matrices. Also we give necessary and sufficient condition for a linear operator $T:M_m\rightarrow M_n$ to be (strong) preserver of doubly stochastic matrices and permutation matrices.
