Explicit left orders on free groups extending the lexicographic order on free monoids [PDF]
, 2013 For every finitely generated free group we construct an explicit left order extending the lexicographic order on the free monoid generated by the positive letters. The order is defined by a left, free action on the orbit of 0 of a free group of piecewise

Is Word Order Asymmetry Mathematically Expressible?
Biolinguistics, 2013 The computational procedure for human natural language (CHL) shows an asymmetry in unmarked orders for S, O, and V. Following Lyle Jenkins, it is speculated that the asymmetry is expressible as a group-theoretical factor (included in Chomsky’s third ...
