Abstract

It is shown that every almost positive linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a Banach *-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to a Banach *-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator when h(rx) = rh(x) (r > 1) holds for all $x\in\mathcal{A}$, and that every almost linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator when h($2^nu*y$) = h($2^nu$)*h(y) holds for all unitaries $u\in \mathcal{A}$, all $y \in \mathcal{A}$, and all n = 0, 1, 2, ..., by using the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of functional equations. Under a more weak condition than the condition as given above, we prove that every almost linear mapping h : $\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathcal{B}$ of a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ A to a unital C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ is a positive linear operator. It is applied to investigate states, center states and center-valued traces.
