Weak Markov operators


Hūlya Duru, Serkan Ilter




Let A and B be f-algebras with unit elements eA and eB respectively. A positive operator T from A to B satisfying T(eA) = eB is called a Markov operator. In this definition we replace unit elements with weak order units and, in this case, call T to be a weak Markov operator. In this paper, we characterize extreme points of the weak Markov operators.
