Jan 14, 2013 at 2:41 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | Certainly there are many partial orders on $\mathbb{Q}$ compatible with the group structure; all you need is a submonoid $P \subseteq \mathbb{Q}$ with the property that $x \in P$ and $-x \in P$ implies $x = 0$. For example, $P = \mathbb{N}$ would work: define $x \leq y$ to mean there is a nonnegative integer $n$ such that $y = n + x$. "Torsion free" refers only to group structure, not order structure; $\mathbb{Q}$ is of course torsion free. | |
