    The authors study valuations on lattice-ordered groups with values in a lattice of order ideals of the root system of regular subgroups. They use these valuations to obtain new and old results for archimedean extensions and archimedean closures of lattice-ordered groups. In the penultimate section of their paper, they define \(\Delta\)-extensions and \(\Delta\)-closures and derive a variety of new results for them. This comprehensive paper finishes with a list of interesting open questions.
