The Joly–Becker theorem for * –orderings

Igor Klep, Dejan Velušček (2008)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We prove the * –version of the Joly–Becker theorem: a skew field admits a * –ordering of level n iff it admits a * –ordering of level n for some (resp. all) odd . For skew fields with an imaginary unit and fields stronger results are given: a skew field with imaginary unit that admits a * –ordering of higher level also admits a * –ordering of level 1 . Every field that admits a * –ordering of higher level admits a * –ordering of level 1 or 2

Topology on ordered fields

Yoshio Tanaka (2012)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

An ordered field is a field which has a linear order and the order topology by this order. For a subfield F of an ordered field, we give characterizations for F to be Dedekind-complete or Archimedean in terms of the order topology and the subspace topology on F .
