%0 Journal Article %T Spectral isometries on non-simple C*-algebras %A Martin Mathieu %A Ahmed R. Sourour %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %X We prove that unital surjective spectral isometries on certain non-simple unital C*-algebras are Jordan isomorphisms. Along the way, we establish several general facts in the setting of semisimple Banach algebras. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1110.6856v1
