On the structure of positive maps between matrix algebras

Władysław A. MajewskiMarcin Marciniak — 2007

Banach Center Publications

The structure of the set of positive unital maps between M₂(ℂ) and Mₙ(ℂ) (n ≥ 3) is investigated. We proceed with the study of the "quantized" Choi matrix thus extending the methods of our previous paper [MM2]. In particular, we examine the quantized version of Størmer's extremality condition. Maps fulfilling this condition are characterized. To illustrate our approach, a careful analysis of Tang's maps is given.

Decomposability of extremal positive unital maps on M₂(ℂ)

A map φ: Mₘ(ℂ) → Mₙ(ℂ) is decomposable if it is of the form φ = φ₁ + φ₂ where φ₁ is a CP map while φ₂ is a co-CP map. It is known that if m = n = 2 then every positive map is decomposable. Given an extremal unital positive map φ: M₂(ℂ) → M₂(ℂ) we construct concrete maps (not necessarily unital) φ₁ and φ₂ which give a decomposition of φ. We also show that in most cases this decomposition is unique.
