Abstract:

Let $X$ and $Y$ be right, full, Hilbert $C^*$-modules over the algebras $A$ and $B$ respectively and let $T:X\to Y$ be a linear surjective isometry. Then $T$ can be extended to an isometry of the linking algebras. $T$ then is a sum of two maps: a (bi-)module map (which is completely isometric and preserves the inner product) and a map that reverses the (bi-)module actions. If $A$(or $B$) is a factor von Neumann algebra, then every isometry $T:X\to Y$ is either a (bi-)module map or reverses the (bi-)module actions.
