A ring R (associative ring) is said to be fully ordered provided that R is a linearly ordered set under a relation such that for any a, b and c in R, implies that and if c ε 0 then and . We say a subset K of R is convex provided that if a, b ε K such that then the interval [a, b] is a subset of K. Obviously an additive subgroup K of R is convex if and only if b ε K and b > 0 implies [a, b] ⊆ K.
