Free products of bi-orderable groups

Abstract

We prove a bi-ordered version of Rivas' result for free products of left-order groups. Namely, we show that a free product of bi-ordered groups does not admit isolated bi-ordering. Our method relies on the dynamical realization of bi-ordered groups. We also show that the natural action of the automorphism group $Aut(F_2)$ on $F_2$ does not have dense orbits.
