Abstract

We prove that a generalized version, essentially obtained by R.M. Loynes, of the B. Sz.-Nagy’s Dilation Theorem for \({\mathcal{B}^*(\mathcal{H})}\) -valued (here \({\mathcal{H}}\) is a VH-space in the sense of Loynes) positive semidefinite maps on *-semigroups is equivalent with a generalized version of the W.F. Stinespring’s Dilation Theorem for \({\mathcal{B}^*(\mathcal{H})}\) -valued completely positive linear maps on B *-algebras. This equivalence result is a generalization of a theorem of F.H. Szafraniec, originally proved for the case of operator valued maps (that is, when \({\mathcal{H}}\) is a Hilbert space).
