Abstract:Abstract. An embedding (called a GCD theory) of partly ordered abelian group G into abelian l-group Γ is investigated such that any element of Γ is an infimum of a subset (possible non-finite) from G. It is proved that a GCD theory need not be unique. A complete GCD theory is introduced and it is proved that G admits a complete GCD theory if and only if it admits a GCD theory G / / Γ such that Γ is an Archimedean l-group. Finally, it is proved that a complete GCD theory is unique (up to o-isomorphisms) and th… Show more
