Prestel introduced a generalization of the notion of an ordering of a field, which is called a semiordering. Prestel's axioms for a semiordered field differ from the usual (Artin-Schreier) postulates in requiring only the closedness of the domain of positivity under x ↦ xa² for non-zero a, in place of requiring that positive elements have a positive product. Our aim in this work is to study this type of ordering in the case of a division ring. We show that it actually behaves just as in the commutative...
The concept of a Prüfer ring is studied in the case of rings with involution such that it coincides with the corresponding notion in the case of commutative rings.
