Abstract
In this work, we study a sub-collection of unital completely positive maps from a unital -algebra to , the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space in the setting of -convexity. Let be an action of a group on the -algebra through -automorphisms. We focus our attention to the set of all unital completely positive maps from to , which remain invariant under . We denote this collection by the notation . This collection forms a -convex set. We characterize the set of -extreme points of . Further, we conclude the article by proving the Krein--Milman type theorem in the setting of -convexity for the set .
