Abstract

Let u and v be linear spaces over fields F and K, respectively, such that dim u = n >= 2 and vertical bar F vertical bar >= 3. Let Lambda(2) u be the second exterior power of u. Fixing an even integer k satisfying n-1/2 <= k <= n, it is shown that a map psi: Lambda(2) u -> Lambda(2) v satisfies psi(u + v) = psi(u) + psi(v) for all rank k bivectors u, v is an element of Lambda(2) u if and only if psi is an additive map. Examples showing the indispensability of the assumption on k are given.
