Let Mn+ be the set of entrywise nonnegative n×nn×n matrices. Denote by r(A)r(A) the spectral radius (Perron root) of A∈Mn+. Characterization is obtained for maps f:Mn+→Mn+ such that r(f(A)+f(B))=r(A+B)r(f(A)+f(B))=r(A+B) for all A,B∈Mn+. In particular, it is shown that such a map has the formA↦S-1ASorA↦S-1AtrS,for some S∈Mn+ with exactly one positive entry in each row and each column. Moreover, the same conclusion holds if the spectral radius is replaced by the spectrum or the peripheral spectrum. Similar results are obtained for maps on the set of n×nn×n nonnegative symmetric matrices. Furthermore, the proofs are extended to obtain analogous results when spectral radius is replaced by the numerical range, or the spectral norm. In the case of the numerical radius, a full description of preservers of the sum is also obtained, but in this case it turns out that the standard forms do not describe all such preservers.
