One of the very active research areas in matrix theory is the study of preserver problems, including linear preserver problems, additive preserver problems and multiplicative preserver problems, which concern the classification of maps on matrices or operators that preserve certain special properties. The aim of this book is to provide an introduction to current advances of preserver problems on matrices and present the basic methods of studying preserver problems. In order to ensure that the content is self-contained, we took some conclusions and their proofs from other books or papers, which will be convenient to the readers. It is also intended to offer a collection of references on preserver problems on matrices. This book is especially appropriate for advanced undergraduates majored in mathematics,and also intended for graduate students and research level mathematicians. It is hoped that the book will be suitable for postgraduate to use or as a reference. The readers are required to familiarize with matrix methods and to comprehend some basic concepts in algebra, such as linear space, (semi-)group, (semi-)ring, homomorphism, isomorphism,etc.
