Summary: In this paper we completely describe additive surjective continuous maps in the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on a complex separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, preserving the operators of finite ascent, the operators of finite descent, Drazin invertible operators, upper semi-Browder operators, lower semi-Browder operators or Browder operators in both directions.
