Approximately unital operator systems

The main theme of this paper is to consider a notion of 'approximately unital operator systems' including both C*-algebras and unital operator systems.The goals are to prove a version of the Choi-Effros theorem for these systems,to introduce a functorial process for forming an approximately unital operator systems from a given matrix ordered vector space with a proper approximate order unit,to study second duals of these objects and to prove that a C*-algebra can be characterized as an approximately unital ...
