Pinchings and Positive linear maps

Abstract

We employ the pinching theorem, ensuring that some operators A admit any sequence of contractions as an operator diagonal of A, to deduce/improve two recent theorems of Kennedy-Skoufranis and Loreaux-Weiss for conditional expectations onto a masa in the algebra of operators on a Hilbert space. We also get a few results for sums in a unitary orbit.
