Abstract

Let θ be a Jordan homomorphism from an algebra A into an algebra B. We find various conditions under which the restriction of θ to the commutator ideal of A is the sum of a homomorphism and an antihomomorphism. Algebraic results, obtained in the first part of the paper, are applied to the second part dealing with the case where A and B are C*-algebras.
