If a completely positive unital map admits a completely positive unital left inverse, it is a complete isometry

Let $T$ be an injective operator system and $U$ be an arbitrary operator system. Let $\varphi: T \to U$ be a unital completely positive map and $\psi: U \to T$ be a unital completely positive map with ...

Non-unital Russo-Dye Theorem

Let $A$ be a C$^*$-algebra and let $\phi$ be a positive linear map from $A$ to $B(H)$ (bounded linear operators on Hilbert's space). If $A$ is unital, then the Russo-Dye Theorem implies that $\|\phi\...

Maps which are both completely positive and positive

Definition:A linear map $f:\mathbb C^n\to \mathbb C^n$ is called positive if $\langle fa,a\rangle\ge0$ for all $a\in \mathbb C^n$. Equivalently, $f\in M_{n}(\mathbb C)$ is positive if it can be ...

Continuity under various topologies for positive linear functionals

It is known that if $\mathcal A$ is a unital $\mathbb C$-$*$-algebra and $A$ is a unital subalgebra closed under $*$, and if $f : A \to \mathbb C$ is linear, then $f$ is positive if and only if $f$ is ...
