An invertible linear map ϕ on a Lie algebra L is called a triple automorphism of it if ϕ ( [ x , [ y , z ] ] ) = [ ϕ ( x ) , [ ϕ ( y ) , ϕ ( z ) ] ] for x , y , z L . Let 𝔤 be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of rank l defined over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero, 𝔭 an arbitrary parabolic subalgebra of 𝔤 . It is shown in this paper that an invertible linear map ϕ on 𝔭 is a triple automorphism if and only if either ϕ itself is an automorphism of 𝔭 or it is the composition of an automorphism of 𝔭 and an extremal map of order 2 .

AB - An invertible linear map $\varphi $ on a Lie algebra $L$ is called a triple automorphism of it if $\varphi ([x,[y,z]])=[\varphi (x),[ \varphi (y),\varphi (z)]]$ for $\forall x, y, z\in L$. Let $\mathfrak {g}$ be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of rank $l$ defined over an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic zero, $\mathfrak {p}$ an arbitrary parabolic subalgebra of $\mathfrak {g}$. It is shown in this paper that an invertible linear map $\varphi $ on $\mathfrak {p}$ is a triple automorphism if and only if either $\varphi $ itself is an automorphism of $\mathfrak {p}$ or it is the composition of an automorphism of $\mathfrak {p}$ and an extremal map of order $2$.
