Abstract We present new proof of non-bijective Wigner theorem on symmetries of quantum systems using only basic linear algebra. It is based on showing that any non-zero Jordan ∗-homomorphism between matrix algebras preserving rank-one projections is implemented by either a unitary or an anitiunitary map. As a new application we extend hitherto known results on preservers of quantum relative entropy to infinite quantum systems.
