The stable category of preordered groups

Aline Michel

In this article, we present the stable category of preordered groups associated with some Z-pretorsion theory. We first define such a category as well as the related functor, and then study their properties. By doing so, we provide a description of both Z-kernels and Z-cokernels in the category of preordered groups. Finally, we prove the universal property of the stable category.
