Hahn embedding theorem #

In this file, we prove the Hahn embedding theorem: every linearly ordered abelian group can be embedded as an ordered subgroup of Lex (HahnSeries Ω ℝ), where Ω is the finite Archimedean classes of the group. The theorem is stated as hahnEmbedding_isOrderedAddMonoid.

Hahn embedding theorem

For a linearly ordered additive group M, there exists an injective OrderAddMonoidHom from M to Lex (HahnSeries (FiniteArchimedeanClass M) ℝ) that sends each a : M to an element of the a-Archimedean class of the Hahn series.
