AbstractThe notion of torsion radical of cyclically ordered groups is defined analogously as in the case of lattice ordered groups. We denote by T the collection of all torsion radicals of cyclically ordered groups. For τ1, τ2 ∈ T, we put τ1 ∈ τ2 if τ1(G) □ τ2(G) for each cyclically ordered group G. We show that T is a proper class; nevertheless, we apply for T the usual terminology of the theory of partially ordered sets. We prove that T is a complete completely distributive lattice. The analogous result fails to be valid for torsion radicals of lattice ordered groups. Further, we deal with products of torsion classes of cyclically ordered groups.

We show that each archimedean lattice-ordered group is contained in a unique (up to isomorphism) minimal archimedean vector lattice. This improves a result of Paul F. Conrad appearing previously in this Bulletin. Moreover, we show that this relationship between archimedean lattice-ordered groups and archimedean vector lattices is functorial.

A group G is right-ordered if it can be totally ordered so that for any a, b, c in G, a < b implies that ac < bc. Right-ordered groups, considered as order preserving automorphisms of ordered sets, were studied by Cohn in [4]; but the first systematic study of the structure of these groups was made by Conrad in [5] where he gave several natural characterizations of right-ordered groups. We mention here that the class of right-ordered groups is precisely the subgroup closure of the class of lattice ordered groups (see [6], [7], [9] or [10]).

Conrad (10) and Wolfenstein (15; 16) have introduced the notion of an archimedean extension (a-extension) of a lattice-ordered group (l-group). In this note the class of l-groups that possess a plenary subset of regular subgroups which are normal in the convex l-subgroups that cover them are studied. It is shown in § 3 (Corollary 3.4) that the class is closed with respect to a-extensions and (Corollary 3.7) that each member of the class has an a-closure. This extends (6, p. 324, Corollary II; 10, Theorems 3.2 and 4.2; 15, Theorem 1) and gives a partial answer to (10, p. 159, Question 1). The key to proving both of these results is Theorem 3.3, which asserts that if a regular subgroup is normal in the convex l-subgroup that covers it, then this property is preserved by a-extensions.

The theory of partially ordered topological groups has received little attention in the literature, despite the accessibility and importance in analysis of the group Rm. One obstacle in the way of a general theory seems to be, that a convenient association between the ordering and the topology suggests that the cone of all strictly positive elements be open, i.e. that the topology be at least as strong as the open-interval topology U; but if the ordering is a lattice ordering and not a full ordering then U itself is already discrete. So to obtain in this context something more interesting topologically than the discrete topology and orderwise than the full order, one must forego orderings which make lattice-ordered groups: in fact, the partially ordered group must be an antilattice, that is, must admit no nontrivial meets or joins (see § 2, 10°).

AbstractThe notion of a relatively uniform convergence (ru-convergence) has been used first in vector lattices and then in Archimedean lattice ordered groups.Let G be an Archimedean lattice ordered group. In the present paper, a relative uniform completion (ru-completion) $$ G_{\omega _1 } $$ of G is dealt with. It is known that $$ G_{\omega _1 } $$ exists and it is uniquely determined up to isomorphisms over G. The ru-completion of a finite direct product and of a completely subdirect product are established. We examine also whether certain properties of G remain valid in $$ G_{\omega _1 } $$. Finally, we are interested in the existence of a greatest convex l-subgroup of G, which is complete with respect to ru-convergence.

AbstractIn this paper we investigate sequential convergences on a cyclically ordered group G which are compatible with the group operation and with the relation of cyclic order; we do not assume the validity of the Urysohn’s axiom. The system convG of convergences under consideration is partially ordered by means of the set-theoretical inclusion. We prove that convG is a Brouwerian lattice.
