| contents | The space of weak expectations for a given representation of a (unital) separable C*-algebra is a compact convex set of (unital) completely positive maps in the BW topology, when it is non-empty. An application of the classical Choquet theory gives a barycentric decomposition of a weak expectation in that set. However, to complete the barycentric picture, one needs to know the extreme points of the compact convex set in question. In this article, we explicitly identify the set of extreme points of the space of weak expectations for a given representation, using operator theoretic techniques. |
