In this paper, we show, among other results, that if A is an archimedean vector lattice, then any orthosymmetric disjointness preserving bilinear map on A × A is order bounded if and only if A is hyper-archimedean.Finally, we show for a uniformly complete semiprime f -algebra A, that the vector space of all linear operators T from Π(A) = {ab; ∀a, b ∈ A} into A and the vector space of orthosymmetric bilinear maps Ψ : A × A → A are isomorphic if and only if A is hyper-archimedean.
