Abstract

We study categorical properties of right-preordered groups, giving an explicit description of limits and colimits in this category, studying some exactness properties, and showing that it is a quasivariety. We show that, from an algebraic point of view, the category of right-preordered groups shares several properties with the one of monoids. Moreover, we describe split extensions of right-preordered groups, showing in particular that semidirect products of ordered groups always have a natural right-preorder.
