Zhang, Lattice-ordered matrix rings over totally ordered rings, Order 31 (2014), 45-54.https://hdl.handle.net/10657.1/2450For an nxn matric algebra over a totally ordered integral domain, necessary and sufficient conditions are derived such that the entrywise lattice order on it is the only lattice order (up to an isomorphism) to make it into a lattice ordered algebra in which the identity matrix is positive. The conditions are then applied to particular integral domains. In the second part of the paper we consider nxn matrix rings containing a positive n-cycle over totally ordered rings. Finally, a characterization of lattice-ordered matrix rings with the entrywise lattice order is given.Greatest common division domain Integral domain Lattice-ordered ring Local domain Matrix ring Positive cycleArticle
