A Constructive Theory of Ordered Sets and their Completions
- Date Issued:
- 2018
- Abstract/Description:
- The context for the development of this work is constructive mathematics without the axiom of countable choice. By constructive mathematics, we mean mathematics done without the law of excluded middle. Our original goal was to give a list of axioms for the real numbers R by only considering the order on R. We instead develop a theory of ordered sets and their completions and a theory of ordered abelian groups.
