AbstractIn the context of partially ordered vector spaces one encounters different sorts of order convergence and order topologies. This article investigates these notions and their relations. In particular, we study and relate the order topology presented by Floyd, Vulikh and Dobbertin, the order bound topology studied by Namioka and the concept of order convergence given in the works of Abramovich, Sirotkin, Wolk and Vulikh. We prove that the considered topologies disagree for all infinite dimensional Archimedean vector lattices that contain order units. For reflexive Banach spaces equipped with ice cream cones we show that the order topology, the order bound topology and the norm topology agree and that order convergence is equivalent to norm convergence.

Abstract A basic problem in the theory of partially ordered vector spaces is to characterise those cones on which every order-isomorphism is linear. We show that this is the case for every Archimedean cone that equals the inf-sup hull of the sum of its engaged extreme rays. This condition is milder than existing ones and is satisfied by, for example, the cone of positive operators in the space of bounded self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space. We also give a general form of order-isomorphisms on the inf-sup hull of the sum of all extreme rays of the cone, which extends results of Artstein–Avidan and Slomka to infinite-dimensional partially ordered vector spaces, and prove the linearity of homogeneous order-isomorphisms in a variety of new settings.

We generalise to partially ordered vector spaces, with a new technique, Arendt's approach to Kim's characterisation of Riesz homomorphisms.

AbstractDefining a Radon-type integration process we extend the Alexandroff, Fichtengolts-KantorovichHildebrandt and Riesz integral representation theorems in partially ordered vector spaces.We also identify some classes of operators with other classes of operator-valued set functions, the correspondence between operator and operator-valued set function being given by integration.All these established results can be immediately applied in C* -algebras (especially in W* -algebras and AW* -algebras of type I), in Jordan algebras, in partially ordered involutory (O*-)algebras, in semifields, in quantum probability theory, as well as in the operator Feynman-Kac formula.

In this paper we study partially ordered vector spaces X whose positive cone K possesses a base which defines a norm in X. A positive decomposition x = y − z of the element x is said to be minimal if ‖x‖ = ‖y‖ + ‖z‖. We proved in (6) that the property that every element of X has a unique minimal decomposition is equivalent to an intersection property for homothetic translates of the base. Section 2 of the present paper analyses this intersection property in much more detail and discusses possible generalizations of it.

AbstractWe study three types of order convergence and related concepts of order continuous maps in partially ordered sets, partially ordered abelian groups, and partially ordered vector spaces, respectively. An order topology is introduced such that in the latter two settings under mild conditions order continuity is a topological property. We present a generalisation of the Ogasawara theorem on the structure of the set of order continuous operators.
