Complete positivity is a property of a linear map between two spaces that ensures not only the preservation of positivity of operators but also the positivity of larger matrices formed by these operators. This concept is crucial in quantum mechanics as it relates to quantum channels and the evolution of quantum states, guaranteeing that the transformation applied to a quantum state remains physically realizable and does not lead to unphysical outcomes.
congrats on reading the definition of Complete Positivity. now let's actually learn it.
