Now we are in a position to apply Lemma 2.14, from which it follows that<br />
m has a unique extension<br />
0<br />
m : K 0 m ! A 2<br />
with the property that m (f ) (o)<br />
;! 0 (f) inA 2 whenever f 2 K 0 m and ff g<br />
is a net in Km such that f<br />
(o)<br />
;! f in A 1. It is straightforward to verify that<br />
K 0 m is an f-subalgebra <strong>of</strong> A 1 and that 0 m is an f-algebra homomorphism.<br />
Hence the pair (K 0 m 0 m) satis es (i) and (ii) above. To show that condition<br />
(iii) is satis ed as well, takeany f 2 K 0 m and let ff g be a net in Km such that<br />
f<br />
(o)<br />
;! f in A1. By the order continuity <strong>of</strong> P1 <strong>of</strong> follows that P1f ;! P1f and so m (P1f ) (o)<br />
;! 0 m (P1f). On the other hand, since mf<br />
(o)<br />
;! 0 and P2 is order continuous we nd that<br />
mf<br />
m (P1f )=P2 ( mf ) (o)<br />
;! P2 (<br />
0<br />
mf) <br />
consequently 0 m (P 1f) =P 2 ( 0 mf). This shows that 0 m P 1 = P 2<br />
(o)<br />
0<br />
mand<br />
so (K 0 m 0 m) 2K.<br />
Since (K 0 m 0 m) is a maximal element <strong>of</strong>K, we may conclude that K 0 m =<br />
Km. Therefore, Km is order closed in A 1. By Lemma 6.3, the order closure<br />
<strong>of</strong> K (CB1 E 1) is equal to A 1, so Km = A 1. Hence = m is the desired<br />
f-algebra homomorphism.<br />
Finally, suppose that and are surjective isomorphisms. Then we can<br />
apply the above construction to ;1 and ;1 to obtain a corresponding falgebra<br />
homomorphism 1 : A 2 ! A 1. Then it is clear that 1 ( f) =f for<br />
all f 2 K (CB1 E 1). De ning<br />
M = ff 2 A 1 : 1 ( f) =fg <br />
it follows that M is an order closed f-subalgebra <strong>of</strong> A 1 with K (CB1 E 1) M.<br />
Again using Lemma 6.3 we conclude that M = A 1, so 1 ( f) = f for all<br />
f 2 A 1. Similarly we see that ( 1g) = g for all g 2 A 2, hence is a<br />
surjective isomorphism. By this the pro<strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong> the proposition is complete.<br />
7 The construction <strong>of</strong> special subalgebras<br />
In this section we will discuss in some more detail the structure <strong>of</strong> <strong>positive</strong><br />
<strong>projections</strong> onto f-subalgebras. The construction presented in this section<br />
are inspired by the results in [10], Section 14. We start by listing the hypotheses<br />
which will be assumed throughout this section:<br />
