Varieties minimal over representable varieties of lattice-ordered groups

摘要

Weinberg showed that the variety of abelian lattice-ordered groups is the minimal nontrivial variety in the lattice of varieties of lattice-ordered groups. Scrimger showed that the abelian variety of lattice-ordered groups has countably infinitely many nonrepresentable covering varieties, and it is now known that his varieties are the only nonrepresentable covers of the abelian variety.
