Unique conditional expectations for abelian $C^*$-inclusions

Operator Algebras 2016-09-21 v2

Abstract

Let DAD \subseteq A be an inclusion of unital abelian CC^*-algebras. In this note we characterize (in topological terms) when there is a unique conditional expectation E:ADE:A \to D, at least when AA is separable. As an application, we provide the first example of an inclusion with a unique conditional expectation, but multiple pseudo-expectations (in the sense of Pitts).
