Stably Embedded Pairs of Ordered Abelian Groups

Logic 2026-03-31 v3

Abstract

We investigate when an ordered abelian group GG is stably embedded in a given elementary extension HH. We focus on a large class of ordered groups which includes maximal ordered groups with interpretable archimedean valuation. We give a complete answer for groups in this class which takes the form of a transfer principle for valued groups. It follows in particular that all types in the lexicographic product iωZ\prod_{i\in \omega} \mathbb{Z} are definable.
