{"# Lattice ordered groups
Lattice ordered groups were introduced by [Birkhoff][birkhoff1942]. They form the algebraic underpinnings of vector lattices, Banach lattices, AL-space, AM-space etc.
A lattice ordered group is a type α satisfying:
* Lattice α
* CommGroup α
* MulLeftMono α
* MulRightMono α
This file establishes basic properties of lattice ordered groups. It is shown that when the group is commutative, the lattice is distributive. This also holds in the non-commutative case ([Birkhoff][birkhoff1942],[Fuchs][fuchs1963]) but we do not yet have the machinery to establish this in mathlib.
