Summary: A regular left-order on a finitely generated group \(G\) is a total, left-multiplication invariant order on \(G\) whose corresponding positive cone is the image of a regular language over the generating set of the group under the evaluation map. We show that admitting regular left-orders is stable under extensions and wreath products and we give a classification of the groups whose left-orders are all regular left-orders. In addition, we prove that a solvable Baumslag-Solitar group \(B (1, n)\) admits a regular left-order if and only if \(n \geq - 1\). Finally, Hermiller and Šunić showed that no free product admits a regular left-order. We show that if \(A\) and \(B\) are groups with regular left-orders, then \((A \ast B) \times \mathbb{Z}\) admits a regular left-order.
