Abstract
A map is decomposable if it is of the form where is a CP map while is a co-CP map. It is known that if then every positive map is decomposable. Given an extremal unital positive map we construct concrete maps (not necessarily unital) and which give a decomposition of . We also show that in most cases this decomposition is unique.
