Title: Representation Theory of Partially Ordered Vector Spaces
Authors: Graves, William Henson
Advisor: Sabidussi, G.
Department: Mathematics
Keywords: mathematics;representation theory;partially ordered vector spaces
Publication Date: Sep-1968
Abstract: The major results of this work concern perfect ideals of ordered vector spaces, and a representation theory for ordered vector spaces. Perfect ideals are characterized by the property that their annihilators in the order dual are ideals. We obtain a number of conditions for an ordered vector space which are equivalent to the intersection of the set of perfect maximal ideals being 0. We also obtain conditions which permit an ordered vector space to be represented as a subspace of the sections of a vector bundle. This generalizes the representation theory for odered vector spaces with unit.
