Extreme points in sets of positive linear maps on B(H)

Three main results are obtained: (1) If $\text{D}$ is an atomic maximal Abelian subalgebra of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$), $\text{P}$ is the projection of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) onto $\text{D}$ and h is a complex homomorphism on $\text{D}$, then h ° $\text{P}$ is a pure state on $\text{B}$($\text{H}$). (2) If {P_n} is a sequence of mutually orthogonal projections with rank(P_n) = n and ∑ P_n = I, $\text{P}$ is the projection of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) onto {P_n}″ given by P(T)=∑trace_n(T)P_n and h is a homomorphism on {P_n}″ such that h(P_n) = 0 for all n then h ° $\text{P}$ induces a type II_∞ factor representation of the Calkin algebra. (3) If $\text{M}$ is a nonatomic maximal Abelian subalgebra of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) then there is an atomic maximal Abelian subalgebra $\text{D}$ of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) and a large family {Φ_α} of ¹-homomorphisms from $\text{D}$ onto $\text{M}$ such that for each α, Φ_α ° $\text{P}$ is an extreme point in the set of projections from $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) onto $\text{M}$. (Here $\text{P}$ denotes the projection of $\text{B}$($\text{H}$) onto $\text{D}$.)
