โฆ Synopsis
Suppose R is a ring with 1 and C a central subring of R. Let T,(R) be the C-algebra of upper triangular n x n matrices over R. Recently several authors have shown that if R is sufficiently well behaved, then every C-automorphism of T,,(R) is the composites of an inner automorphism and an automorphism induced from a C-automorphism of R (see [l-5]). To generalize these results. in this paper we prove that if N > 2 and R is a semiprime ring or a ring in which all idempotents are central, then f : T,,(R) 4 T,(R) (T,(R)

Let \(R\) be a non-trivial commutative ring having no idempotents except 0 and 1 . Denote by \(t\) the Lie algebra over \(R\) consisting of all upper triangular \(n\) by \(n\) matrices over \(R\). We give an explicit description of the automorphism group of this Lie algebra. 1994 Academic Press, Inc
