Findings
Dual cone of a symmetric mapping cone is also symmetric.
Characterizations of positive functionals with strong positivity conditions.
Applications to separable and PPT-states in quantum information.
Abstract
This is a revised form of the previous paper in which we study cones of positive maps of B(H) into itself. We add the result that the dual cone of a symmetric mapping cone is itself a symmetric mapping cone. As applications we obtain characterizations of linear functionals with strong positivity conditions with respect to a class of mapping cones called symmetric mapping cones. Applications are given to separable and PPT-states.
