On Integration in Partially Ordered Groups

M. Sion and T. Traynor investigated ([15]-[17]), measures and integrals having values in topological groups or semigroups. Their definition of integrability was a modification of Phillips-Rickart bilinear vector integrals, in locally convex topological vector spaces.The purpose of this paper is to develop a good notion of an integration process in partially ordered groups, based on their order structure. The results obtained generalize some of the results of J. D. M. Wright ([19]-[22]) where the measurable functions are real-valued and the measures take values in partially ordered vector spaces.Let if be a σ-algebra of subsets of T, X a lattice group, Y, Z partially ordered groups and m : H → F a F-valued measure on H. By F(T, X), M(T, X), E(T, X) and S(T, X) are denoted the lattice group of functions with domain T and with range X, the lattice group of (H, m)-measurable functions of F(T, X) and the lattice group of (H, m)-elementary measurable functions of F(T, X) and the lattice group of (H, m)-simple measurable functions of F(T, X) respectively.
