Local indicability in ordered groups: Braids and elementary amenable groups
Local indicability in ordered groups: Braids and elementary amenable groups
Groups which are locally indicable are also right-orderable, but not conversely. This paper considers a characterization of local indicability in right-ordered groups, the key concept being a property of right-ordered groups due to Conrad. Our methods answer a question regarding the Artin braid groups $B_n$ which are known to be …
