In this paper we present some characterizations for quasi-arithmetic operator means (among them the arithmetic and harmonic means) on the positive definite cone of the full algebra of Hilbert space operators, and also for the Kubo-Ando…
We describe the structure of all bijective maps on the cone of positive definite operators acting on a finite and at least two-dimensional complex Hilbert space which preserve the quantum $\chi_\alpha^2$-divergence for some $\alpha \in…
In this paper we consider the cone of all positive, bounded operators acting on an infinite dimensional, complex Hilbert space, and examine bijective maps that preserve absolute continuity in both directions. It turns out that these maps…
In this article we consider means of positive operators on a Hilbert space. We extend the theory of matrix power means to arbitrary operator means in the sense of Kubo-Ando. The basis of the extension is relying on ideas coming from…
We determine the structure of all bijections on the cone of positive semidefinite operators which preserve the quantum $f$-divergence for an arbitrary strictly convex function $f$ defined on the positive halfline. It turns out that any such…
In this article we consider means of positive bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We present a complete theory that provides a framework which extends the theory of the Karcher mean, its approximating matrix power means, and a…
In this paper, we establish a bijection between Kubo-Ando operator means defined on the cones $\mathscr{P}_{n}(\mathbb{H})$, $\mathscr{P}_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$, and $\mathscr{P}_{4n}(\mathbb{R})$. This correspondence is induced by the canonical…
The structure of cones of positive and k-positive maps acting on a finite-dimensional Hilbert space is investigated. Special emphasis is given to their duality relations to the sets of superpositive and k-superpositive maps. We characterize…
We study the question when for a given *-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ a sequence of cones $C_n\in M_n(\mathcal{A})$ can be realized as cones of positive operators in a faithful *-representation of $\mathcal{A}$ on a Hilbert space. A…
The seminal work of Kubo and Ando from 1980 provided us with an axiomatic approach to means of positive operators. As most of their axioms are algebraic in nature, this approach has a clear algebraic flavor. On the other hand, it is highly…
We investigate the stability of quantum positivity cones under nonlinear operator means. Specifically, we examine how Kubo--Ando means interact with the separable, positive partial transpose (PPT), and Schmidt-number cones. By analyzing the…
We study the so-called K-positive linear maps from B(L) into B(H) for finite dimensional Hilbert spaces L and H and give characterizations of the dual cone of the cone of K-positive maps. Applications are given to decomposable maps and…
In this paper first we give a partial answer to a question of L. Moln\'ar and W. Timmermann. Namely, we will describe those linear (not necessarily bijective) transformations on the set of self-adjoint matrices which preserve a unitarily…
We characterize bijections on matrix spaces (operator algebras) preserving full rank (invertibility) of differences of matrix (operator) pairs in both directions.
We prove that any bijective fidelity preserving transformation on the set of all density operators on a Hilbert space is implemented by an either unitary or antiunitary operator on the underlying Hilbert space.
We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…
We show that each positive map from B(K) to B(H) with K and H finite dimensional Hilbert spaces is a scalar multiple of a map of the form $Tr - \psi$ with $\psi$ completely positive. This is used to give necessary and sufficient conditions…
On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…
We investigate the relationship between mapping cones and matrix ordered *-vector spaces (i.e., abstract operator systems). We show that to every mapping cone there is an associated operator system on the space of n-by-n complex matrices,…
It is shown that a positive (bounded linear) operator on a Hilbert space with trivial kernel is unitarily equivalent to a Hankel operator that satisfies double positivity condition if and only if it is non-invertible and has simple spectrum…
