It is known that every semigroup of normal completely positive maps P = {Pt:t≥ 0} of ℬ(H), satisfying Pt(1) = 1 for every t ≥ 0, has a minimal dilation to an E0 acting on ℬ(K) for some Hilbert space K⊇H. The minimal dilation of P is unique up to conjugacy. In a previous paper a numerical index was introduced for semigroups of completely positive maps and it was shown that the index of P agrees with the index of its minimal dilation to an E0-semigroup. However, no examples were discussed, and no computations were made. In this paper we calculate the index of a unital completely positive semigroup whose generator is a bounded operator [Formula: see text] in terms of natural structures associated with the generator. This includes all unital CP semigroups acting on matrix algebras. We also show that the minimal dilation of the semigroup P={ exp tL:t≥ 0} to an E0-semigroup is is cocycle conjugate to a CAR/CCR flow.
