Abstract
We show that the notion of ribbon rational homology cobordism yields a partial order on the set of aspherical 3‑manifolds, thus supporting a conjecture formulated by Daemi, Lidman, Vela–Vick and Wong. Our proof is built on Agol’s recent proof of the fact that ribbon concordance yields a partial order on the set of knots in the 3‑sphere.
