Abstract: For any semifinite von Neumann algebra $mathcalM$ and any $1leqp<infty$, we introduce a natutal $S^1$-valued noncommutative $L^p$-space $L^p(mathcalM;S^1)$. We say that a bounded map $Tcolon{L}^p(mathcalM)o{L}^p(mathcalN)$ is $S^1$-bounded (resp. $S^1$-contractive) if $Totimes{I}_{S^1}$ extends to a bounded (resp. contractive) map $Toverlineotimes{I}_{S^1}$ from $L^p(mathcalM;S^1)$ into $L^p(mathcalN;S^1)$. We show that any completely positive map is $S^1$-bounded, with $VertToverlineotimes{I}_{S^1}Vert=VertTVert$. We use the above as a tool to investigate the separating maps $Tcolon{L}^p(mathcalM)o{L}^p(mathcalN)$ which admit a direct Yeadon type factorization, that is, maps for which there exist a $w^{\ast }$-continuous $\ast$-homomorphism $JcolonmathcalMomathcalN$, a partial isometry $winmathcalN$ and a positive operator $B$ affiliated with $mathcalN$ such that $w^{\ast }w=J(1)=s(B)$, $B$ commutes with the range of $J$, and $T(x)=wBJ(x)$ for any $xinmathcalMcap{L}^p(mathcalM)$. Given a separating isometry $Tcolon{L}^p(mathcalM)o{L}^p(mathcalN)$, we show that $T$ is $S^1$-contractive if and only if it admits a direct Yeadon type factorization. We further show that if $pot=2$, the above holds true if and only if $T$ is completely contractive.
