We study k-positive maps on operators. Proofs are given to different positivity criteria. Special attention is on positive maps arising in the study of quantum information science. Results of other researchers are extended and improved. New…

We provide convergent hierarchies for the cone C of copositive matrices and its dual, the cone of completely positive matrices. In both cases the corresponding hierarchy consists of nested spectrahedra and provide outer (resp. inner)…

A symmetric matrix $A$ is completely positive (CP) if there exists an entrywise nonnegative matrix $B$ such that $A = BB^T$. We characterize the interior of the CP cone. A semidefinite algorithm is proposed for checking interiors of the CP…

A linear map between real symmetric matrix spaces is positive if all positive semidefinite matrices are mapped to positive semidefinite ones. A real symmetric matrix is separable if it can be written as a summation of Kronecker products of…

We construct a class of positive linear maps on matrix algebras. We find conditions when these maps are atomic, decomposable and completely positive. We obtain a large class of atomic positive linear maps. As applications in quantum…

By the Choi matrix criteria it is easy to determine if a specific linear matrix map is completely positive, but to establish whether a linear matrix map is positive is much less straightforward. In this paper we consider classes of linear…

Let L_n be the n-dimensional Lorentz cone. A linear map M from R^m to R^n is called Lorentz-positive if M[L_m] is contained in L_n. We extend the notion of concurrence, which was initially introduced to quantify the entanglement of…

In this paper we consider power means of positive Hilbert space operators both in the conventional and in the Kubo-Ando senses. We describe the corresponding isomorphisms (bijective transformations respecting those means as binary…

Let $H$ and $K$ be (finite or infinite dimensional) complex Hilbert spaces. A characterization of positive completely bounded normal linear maps from ${\mathcal B}(H)$ into ${\mathcal B}(K)$ is given, which particularly gives a…

The objective of this manuscript is to understand the structure of an invertible linear map on the space of real symmetric matrices $\mathcal{S}^n$ that leaves invariant the closed convex cones of copositive and completely positive matrices…

We study cubic rational maps that take lines to plane curves. A complete description of such cubic rational maps concludes the classification of all planarizations, i.e., maps taking lines to plane curves.

In this expository note, we explain facial structures for the convex cones consisting of positive linear maps, completely positive linear maps, decomposable positive linear maps between matrix algebras, respectively. These will be applied…

We generalize some results of Borwein, Burke, Lewis, and Wang to mappings with values in metric (resp. ordered normed linear) spaces. We define two classes of monotone mappings between an ordered linear space and a metric space (resp.…

In this semi-expository paper, we first explain key notions from current quantum information theory and criteria for them in a coherent way. These include separability/entanglement, Schmidt numbers of bi-partite states and block-positivity,…

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…

We study positive maps of B(K) into B(H) for finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces K and H. Our main emphasis is on how Choi matrices and estimates of their norms with respect to mapping cones reflect various properties of the maps. Special…

The positive and not completely positive maps of density matrices, which are contractive maps, are discussed as elements of a semigroup. A new kind of positive map (the purification map), which is nonlinear map, is introduced. The density…

Linear maps preserving pure states of a quantum system of any dimension are characterized. This is then used to establish a structure theorem for linear maps that preserve separable pure states in multipartite systems. As an application, a…

Let $D$ be a space of $2\times n$ matrices. Then the face of the cone of all completely positive maps from $M_2$ into $M_n$ given by $D$ is an exposed face of the bigger cone of all decomposable positive linear maps if and only if the set…

We provide a partial classification of positive linear maps in matrix algebras which is based on a family of spectral conditions. This construction generalizes celebrated Choi example of a map which is positive but not completely positive.…
