Abstract: We prove that there exists a dimension group $G$ whose positive cone is not isomorphic to the dimension monoid Dim$L$ of any lattice $L$. The dimension group $G$ has an order-unit, and can be taken of any cardinality greater than or equal to $alep{h}_2$. As to determining the positive cones of dimension groups in the range of the Dim functor, the $alep{h}_2$ bound is optimal. This solves negatively the problem, raised by the author in 1998, whether any conical refinement monoid is isomorphic to the dimension monoid of some lattice. Since $G$ has an order-unit of index two, this also solves negatively a problem raised in 1994 by K.R. Goodearl about representability, with respect to $K_0$, of dimension groups with order-unit of index 2 by unit-regular rings.

Review text

The main result of the paper is that there exists a dimension group \(G\) whose positive cone is not isomorphic to the dimension monoid Dim\((L)\) of any lattice \(L\). A negative answer is provided to a question posed by the author whether any conical refinement monoid is isomorphic to the dimension monoid of some lattice. Since \(G\) has an order-unit of index 2, this also solves negatively a problem posed by \textit{K. R. Goodearl} about representability, with respect to \(K_0\), of dimension groups with order-unit of index 2 by unit-regular rings.
