Integral ordered monoids

Abbreviation: IOMon

Definition

An \emph{integral ordered monoid} is a ordered monoid $\mathbf{A}=\langle A,\cdot,1,\le\rangle$ that is

\emph{integral}: $x\le 1$

Morphisms

Let $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ be ordered monoids. A morphism from $\mathbf{A}$ to $\mathbf{B}$ is a function $h:A\rightarrow B$ that is a orderpreserving homomorphism: $h(x \cdot y)=h(x) \cdot h(y)$, $h(1)=1$, $x\le y\Longrightarrow h(x)\le h(y)$.
