Ordered groups

Abbreviation: OGrp

Definition

An \emph{ordered group} is a partially ordered group $\mathbf{G}=\langle G,\cdot,^{-1},1,\le\rangle$ such that

$\le$ is \emph{linear}: $x\le y\text{ or }y\le x$

Remark: This is a template. If you know something about this class, click on the ``Edit text of this page'' link at the bottom and fill out this page.

It is not unusual to give several (equivalent) definitions. Ideally, one of the definitions would give an irredundant axiomatization that does not refer to other classes.

Morphisms

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