Summary: We consider maps induced on the space of bounded operator matrices via left Schur multiplication by a fixed Schur multiplier matrix. The main goal is to give a complete characterization of those multipliers that induce continuous maps when initial and final topologies are chosen from among the weak, the strong and the norm topologies.
