Weak isometries in partially ordered groups.
In this paper we prove that the collection of all weakly distributive lattice ordered groups is a radical class and that it fails to be a torsion class.
A lattice-ordered ring is called an OIRI-ring if each of its order ideals is a ring ideal. Generalizing earlier work of Basly and Triki, OIRI-rings are characterized as those -rings such that is contained in an -ring with an identity element that is a strong order unit for some nil -ideal of . In particular, if denotes the set of nilpotent elements of the -ring , then is an OIRI-ring if and only if is contained in an -ring with an identity element that is a strong order unit....
It is our aim to contribute to the flourishing collection of knowledge centered on the space of minimal prime subgroups of a given lattice-ordered group. Specifically, we are interested in the inverse topology. In general, this space is compact and , but need not be Hausdorff. In 2006, W. Wm. McGovern showed that this space is a boolean space (i.e. a compact zero-dimensional and Hausdorff space) if and only if the -group in question is weakly complemented. A slightly weaker topological property...
