Characterisations of the weak expectation property

Operator Algebras 2013-07-04 v1

Abstract

We use representations of operator systems as quotients to deduce various characterisations of the weak expectation property (WEP) for C?*-algebras. By Kirchberg's work on WEP, these results give new formulations of Connes' embedding problem.
