Square Roots and Continuity in Strictly Linearly Ordered Semigroups on Real Intervals

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this article we show that the semigroup operation of a strictly linearly ordered semigroup on a real interval is automatically continuous if each element of the semigroup admits a square root. Hence, by a result of Aczél, such a semigroup is isomorphic to an additive subsemigroup of the real numbers.
