β¦ Synopsis
I n this paper, we introduce the concept of a formally negative set in an orderable field and we study field extensions in which certain collections of orders of the ground field may be extended to the larger field. Our methods are altogether classical and actually our definitions and results are very iimilar to those found in B O U R B ~K I
[I], exercises 8, 9, page 43. $! r e shall explain in the text how a twist in the definitions has given advantages t o our treatment.
K e conclude the paper with two applications to the theory of algebraic iinmbei-fields.

We prove that any Borel Abelian ordered group B, having a countable subgroup G as the largest convex subgroup, and such that the quotient B/G is order isomorphic to R, the reals, is Borel grouporder isomorphic to the product R Γ G, ordered lexicographically. As a main ingredient of this proof, we sh
In a graph G = (V, E) provided with a linear order ' < ' on T/, a chordless path with vertices a, h, c, d and edges ub, bc, cd is called an obstruction if both a < b and d < c hold. Chvatal(l984) defined the class of perfectly orderable graphs (i.e., graphs possessing an acyclic orientation of the e
