Abstract

Let T be an ordered ring without divisors of zero, and letA be the set of archimedean subgroups of T generated by a Banaschewski functionτ. LetXΠΔ R be the power series ring of the real numbers ℝ over the totally ordered semigroup Δ of archimedean classes of T, and letχ be the usual Banaschewski function onXΠΔ R. The following are equivalent:

  1. (1)

    τ satisfies the additional condition; for convex subgroups P,Q of T,

    where

  2. (2)

    There exists a one-to-one homomorphism Γ:T→XΠΔ R of ordered rings such that for every convex subgroup Q ofXΠΔ R, there exists a convex subgroup P of T such that\(\Gamma (P) \subseteq Q\) and\(\Gamma (\tau (P)) \subseteq \chi (Q)\).
