I need a reference for the following result (different than thefrom Hahn's 1907 paper (1907)): for the following result.

Theorem: If $G$ is an abeliana totally ordered abelian group, then the field $\mathbb{R}((G))$ is archimedean complete.

  • $\mathbb{R}((G))$ consists of all the functions $f:G\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\{g\in G:f(g)\neq0\}$ is well-ordered.
  • Let $E$ be an ordered field. Two non-zerononzero elements $x,y\in E$ are comparable if there areexist $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that $|x|<m|y|$ and $|y|<n|x|$, where $|a|=\max\{a,-a\}$ for every(where $a\in E$$|a|$ is defined as $\max\{a,-a\}$).
  • Let $E/ K$ be an extension of ordered fields, where the order on $E$ restricted to $K$ coincides with the orderthat of $K$. We say that $E$ is an Archimedean extension of $K$ if for every $x\in E$, there exists $y\in K$ such that $x$ and $y$ are comparable in $E$.
  • A field $K$ is Archimedean completeArchimedean complete if there isit has no proper archimedean extension of $K$fields.

Someone knows anyDoes anyone know a good referencesreference for the proof of this result? The more the better.

Archimedean completeness of some fields

I need a reference for the following result (different than the Hahn's paper (1907)):

Theorem: If $G$ is an abelian ordered group, then the field $\mathbb{R}((G))$ is archimedean complete.

  • $\mathbb{R}((G))$ consists of all the functions $f:G\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\{g\in G:f(g)\neq0\}$ is well-ordered.
  • Let $E$ be an ordered field. Two non-zero elements $x,y\in E$ are comparable if there are $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that $|x|<m|y|$ and $|y|<n|x|$, where $|a|=\max\{a,-a\}$ for every $a\in E$.
  • Let $E/ K$ be an extension of ordered fields, where the order on $E$ restricted to $K$ coincides with the order of $K$. We say that $E$ is an Archimedean extension of $K$ if for every $x\in E$, there exists $y\in K$ such that $x$ and $y$ are comparable in $E$.
  • A field $K$ is Archimedean complete if there is no proper archimedean extension of $K$.
