Let be the algebra of matrices over a field of characteristic not equal to . If , we show that an arbitrary map is Jordan multiplicative, i.e.\ it satisfies the functional equation if and only if one of the following holds: either is constant, equal to for some idempotent , or there exists an invertible matrix and a ring monomorphism such that where denotes the matrix obtained by applying entrywise to . In particular, any Jordan multiplicative map with is automatically additive. The analogous characterization fails when has characteristic .
