2-local triple homomorphisms on von Neumann algebras and JBW$^*$-triples (1405.3836v1)

Abstract: We prove that every (not necessarily linear nor continuous) 2-local triple homomorphism from a JBW$^*$-triple into a JB$^*$-triple is linear and a triple homomorphism. Consequently, every 2-local triple homomorphism from a von Neumann algebra (respectively, from a JBW$^*$-algebra) into a C$^*$-algebra (respectively, into a JB$^*$-algebra) is linear and a triple homomorphism.
