Ordered monoids
Abbreviation: OMon
Definition
An \emph{ordered monoid} is a partially ordered monoid $\mathbf{A}=\langle A,\cdot,1,\le\rangle$ such that
$\le$ is \emph{linear}: $x\le y\text{ or }y\le x$
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: $h(x \cdot y)=h(x) \cdot h(y)$, $h(1)=1$, $x\le y\Longrightarrow h(x)\le h(y)$.
