A note on positive bilinear maps

Aaron C. H. Davey, Cristian Ivanescu and Adi Tcaciuc

Vol. 16 (2023), No. 4, 579–590
Abstract

This paper concerns positive maps between C-algebras, particularly when those positive maps are multilinear. We construct examples of positive bilinear maps that are not 2-positive, and therefore are not completely positive bilinear maps. Paulsen and Smith showed that completely bounded bilinear maps are in one-to-one correspondence with completely bounded linear maps. We show that a similar correspondence does not hold for positive bilinear and linear maps. In particular, we observe that a similar correspondence does not hold if we replace completely bounded with completely positive.
