Tolerances and convexity
To everz partiallz ordered set a certain groupoid is assigned. A tolerance on it is defined similarlz as a congruence, onlz the requirement of transitivitz is omitted. Some theorems concerning these tolerances are proved.
It is shown that any set-open topology on the automorphism group A(X) of a chain X coincides with the pointwise topology and that A(X) is a topological group with respect to this topology. Topological properties of connectedness and compactness in A(X) are investigated. In particular, it is shown that the automorphism group of a doubly homogeneous chain is generated by any neighborhood of the identity element.
For an order embedding of a partly ordered group into an -group a topology is introduced on which is defined by a family of valuations on . Some density properties of sets , and ( being -ideals in ) in the topological space are then investigated, each of them being equivalent to the statement that is a strong theory of quasi-divisors.
