Abstract
A net {aα} of positive, norm one elements of a C*-algebra A excises a state f of A ifThis notion has been used explicitly by the second author [4, 5, 6] for pure states, but the present paper will explore it more fully. The name is motivated by the following example. Let K be the unit disk in the complex plane, A = C(K) and f(a) = a(0). Define an(reiθ) = ϕn(r), whereNote that the sets {t ∊ K:an(t) ∊ 0} form rings about 0 with radii tending to 0. In this sense the sequence {an} “cuts out” the state f and, in the limit, isolates it from all other states.
