Let be a locally compact Hausdorff space. We show that any local -linear map (where" local" is a weaker notion than -linearity) between Banach -modules are" nearly -linear" and" nearly bounded". As an application, a local -linear map between Hilbert -modules is automatically -linear. If, in addition, contains no isolated point, then any -linear map between Hilbert -modules is automatically bounded. Another application is that if a sequence of maps between two Banach spaces" preserve -sequences"(or" preserve ultra- -sequences"), then is bounded for large enough and they have a common bound. Moreover, we will show that if is a bijective" biseparating" linear map from a" full" essential Banach -module into a" full" Hilbert -module (where is another locally compact Hausdorff space), then is" nearly bounded"(in fact, it is automatically bounded if or contains no isolated point) and there exists a homeomorphism such that ( ).
