Let X, Y be compact Hausdorff spaces and E, F be Banach spaces. A linear map T: C(X, E) → C(Y, F) is separating if Tf, Tg have disjoint cozeroes whenever f, g have disjoint cozeroes. We prove that a biseparating linear bijection T (that is, T and T-1 are separating) is a weighted composition operator Tf = h · f o ϕ. Here, h is a function from Y into the set of invertible linear operators from E onto F, and ϕ, is a homeomorphism from Y onto X. We also show that T is bounded if and only if h(y) is a bounded operator from E onto F for all y in Y. In this case, h is continuous with respect to the strong operator topology.
