Let PI (respectively CPI) be the convex compact set of all unital positive (respectively completely positive) linear maps from the matrix algebra Mm([Copf ]) into Mn([Copf ]). We show that maximal faces of CPI correspond to one dimensional subspaces of the vector space Mm, n([Copf ]). Furthermore, a maximal face of CPI lies on the boundary of PI if and only if the corresponding subspace is generated by a rank one matrix.

In this expository note, we explain facial structures for the convex cones consisting of positive linear maps, completely positive linear maps, and decomposable positive linear maps between matrix algebras, respectively. These will be applied to study the notions of entangled edge states with positive partial transposes and optimality of entanglement witnesses.

AbstractLet denote the convex set of all positive linear maps from the matrix algebra Mn(ℂ) into itself. We construct a join homomorphism from the complete lattice of all faces of into the complete lattice of all join homomorphisms between the lattice of all subspaces of ℂn . We also characterize all maximal faces of .

The objective of this paper is to give some concrete distinctions between positive linear maps and completely positive linear maps on C*-algebras of operators.Herein, C*-algebras possess an identity and are written in German type . Capital letters A, B, C stand for operators, script letters for vector spaces, small letters x, y, z for vectors. Capital Greek letters Φ, Ψ stand for linear maps on C*-algebras, small Greek letters α, β, γ for complex numbers.We denote by the collection of all n × n complex matrices. () = ⊗ is the C*-algebra of n × n matrices over .

We analyze bipartite matrices and linear maps between matrix algebras, which are respectively, invariant and covariant, under the diagonal unitary and orthogonal groups' actions. By presenting an expansive list of examples from the literature, which includes notable entries like the Diagonal Symmetric states and the Choi-type maps, we show that this class of matrices (and maps) encompasses a wide variety of scenarios, thereby unifying their study. We examine their linear algebraic structure and investigate different notions of positivity through their convex conic manifestations. In particular, we generalize the well-known cone of completely positive matrices to that of triplewise completely positive matrices and connect it to the separability of the relevant invariant states (or the entanglement breaking property of the corresponding quantum channels). For linear maps, we provide explicit characterizations of the stated covariance in terms of their Kraus, Stinespring, and Choi representations, and systematically analyze the usual properties of positivity, decomposability, complete positivity, and the like. We also describe the invariant subspaces of these maps and use their structure to provide necessary and sufficient conditions for separability of the associated invariant bipartite states.
