Example of a unital contractive map that is not completely positive on an operator system
I am aware of maps that are positive but not completely positive (for example transpose map). BUT I can not think of an example of the following type.
Does there exist an operator $T$ such that a map $...

Dimension of commutant
Suppose that $A = M_n(\mathbb{C})$ be the algebra of $n*n$ matrices over $\mathbb{C}$.
If com(A) = {$B \in M_n(\mathbb{C}); AB = BA$}, then what is the $dim(com(A))?$

When is rank-1 perturbation to a positive operator still positive?
Let $A : \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}$ and $B : \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}$ be trace-class (hence compact) Hermitian operators on a separable Hilbert space. Assume that $A$ is strictly positive and ...

Commutant of the conjugations by unitary matrices
Let $\mathcal{L}(\mathbb{C}^{n \times n})$ denote the algebra of all linear mappings from $\mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ to $\mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ and let $\mathcal{C} \subseteq \mathcal{L}(\mathbb{C}^{...

Reference request on operator matrices [closed]
I'm looking for a reference on linear, bounded, self-adjoint operators defined on the product space, $T:E\times F\to E\times F$ such that
$$Tx = \begin{pmatrix}A & B \\
C & D
\end{pmatrix}\...

Decomposition of positive definite matrices.
It is known that a $n^2 \times n^2$ positive semidefinite matrix $A$ cannot always be written as a finite sum
$$
A=\sum_{j} B_j \otimes C_j
$$
with $B_j$ and $C_j$ positive semidefinite matrices (of ...
