Ordered monoids with zero

Abbreviation: OMonZ

Definition

An \emph{ordered monoid with zero} is of the form $\mathbf{A}=\langle A,\cdot,1,0,\le\rangle$ such that $\mathbf{A}=\langle A,\cdot,1,\le\rangle$ is an ordered monoid and

$0$ is a \emph{zero}: $x\cdot 0 = 0$ and $0\cdot x = 0$

Morphisms

Let $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ be ordered monoids. A morphism from $\mathbf{A}$ to $\mathbf{B}$ is a function $h:A\rightarrow B$ that is a orderpreserving homomorphism: $h(x \cdot y)=h(x) \cdot h(y)$, $h(1)=1$, $h(0)=0$, $x\le y\Longrightarrow h(x)\le h(y)$.
