Reviews
From the reviews: This book is a timely and valuable contribution to the theory and applications of positive linear maps defined on operator algebras and operator systems. ... The style of writing is succinct and to the point. ... the book's value is in its content, the vast majority of which cannot be found in other monographs, and it will surely become the essential reference on positive linear maps for mathematicians and physicists alike. (Douglas R. Farenick, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2014) The author, who is a reputed researcher in this discipline, gathers in this book the main results on positive operators between C*-algebras with the additional novelty of inserting results never before collected together in a book. ... This book is ... a very interesting contribution to the theory of positive linear maps from its beginnings to the latest results. It makes for interesting reading both from a mathematical point of view, as well as for those who are interested in quantum information theory. (Antonio M. Peralta, zbMATH, Vol. 1269, 2013)

Author Information
Stormer's area of work is operator algebras. His main specialties have been non-commutative ergodic theory and positive maps. In connection with the latter the author has also worked on Jordan algebras of self-adjoint operators. He has received the main prize from the Norwegian Science Foundation, the Möbius Prize.
