Abstract

Abstract A Riesz structure on a lattice ordered abelian group G is a real vector space structure where the product of a positive element of G and a positive real is positive. In this paper we show that for every cardinal k there is a totally ordered abelian group with at least k Riesz structures, all of them isomorphic. Moreover two Riesz structures on the same totally ordered group are partially isomorphic in the sense of model theory. Further, as a main result, we build two nonisomorphic Riesz structures on the same l-group with strong unit. This gives a solution to a problem posed by Conrad in 1975. Finally we apply the main result to MV-algebras and Riesz MV-algebras.
