Let Mn be the algebra of all n×n matrix over a field F, A a rank one matrix in Mn. In this article it is shown that if a bilinear map from Mn×Mn to Mn satisfies the condition that (u,v)=(I,A) whenever u·v=A, then there exists a linear map φ from Mn to Mn such that . If is further assumed to be symmetric then there exists a matrix B such that (x,y)=tr(xy)B for all x,yMn. Applying the main result we prove that if a linear map on Mn is desirable at a rank one matrix then it is a derivation, and if an invertible linear map on Mn is automorphisable at a rank one matrix then it is an automorphism. In other words, each rank one matrix in Mn is an all-desirable point and an all-automorphisable point, respectively.
