Abstract

We consider the problem of describing the lattices of compact -ideals of Abelian lattice-ordered groups. (Equivalently, describing the spectral spaces of Abelian lattice-ordered groups.) It is known that these lattices have countably based differences and admit a Cevian operation. Our first result says that these two properties are not sufficient: there are lattices having both countably based differences and Cevian operations, which are not representable by compact -ideals of Abelian lattice-ordered groups. As our second result, we prove that every completely normal distributive lattice of cardinality at most 1 admits a Cevian operation. This complements the recent result of F. Wehrung, who constructed a completely normal distributive lattice having countably based differences, of cardinality 2, without a Cevian operation.
