Abstract

Abstract. We describe a simple scheme for constructing finitely generated monoids in which left-divisibility is a linear ordering, and for practically investigating these monoids. The approach is based on subword reversing, a general method of combinatorial group theory, and connected with Garside theory, here in a non-Noetherian context. As an application we describe several families of ordered groups whose space of left-invariant orderings has an isolated point, including torus knot groups and some of their amalgamated products.
