If D is an integral domain with quotient field K, the group of divisibility G(D) of D is the partially ordered group of non-zero principal fractional ideals with aDbD if and only if aD contains bD. If K* denotes the multiplicative group of K and U(D) the group of units of D, then G(D) is order isomorphic to K*/U(D), where aU(D) ≦ bU(D) if and only if b/aD.
