We describe all possible ways of bi-ordering Thompson’s group F: its space of bi-orderings is made up of eight isolated points and four canonical copies of the Cantor set.

We classify C-orderable groups admitting only finitely many C-orderings. We show that if a C-orderable group has infinitely many C-orderings, then it actually has uncountably many C-orderings, and none of these is isolated ...

In this paper we show that the quaternion orders OZ[ √ 2] ≃ ( √ 2, −1)Z[ √ 2] and OZ[ √ 3] ≃ (3 + 2√ 3, −1)Z[ √ 3], appearing in problems related to the coding theory [4], [3], are not maximal orders in the quaternion ...

Let us write ℓGu f for the category whose objects are lattice-ordered abelian groups (l-groups for short) with a strong unit and finite prime spectrum endowed with a collection of Archimedean elements, one for each prime ...

We introduce a condition on Garside groups that we call Dehornoy structure. An iteration of such a structure leads to a left order on the group. We show conditions for a Garside group to admit a Dehornoy structure, and we ...

Marciniak and Sehgal showed that if u is a non-trivial bicyclic unit of an integral group ring then there is a bicyclic unit v such that u and v generate a non-abelian free group. A similar result does not hold for Bass ...

Let G be a group of odd order that contains a non-central element x whose order is either a prime p >= 5 or 3(l), with l >= 2. Then, in U(ZG), the group of units of ZG, we can find an alternating unit u based on x, and ...
