Statement
Suppose is a gyrogroup with neutral element and inverse map . Then, is a left inverse property loop with the same neutral element and where the left inverse map is the same as the inverse map.
Proof
Given: A gyrogroup , elements .
To prove: There exists unique such that and there exists unique such that (together, these prove it's a loop). Further, (this shows the left inverse property).
Proof:
| Step no. | Assertion/construction | Facts used | Given data used | Previous steps used | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | is the identity map for all . | We note that, for any , . By uniqueness of , we get . | |||
| 2 | Suppose are such that . Then, is the identity map. | gyroassociativity | Step (1) | By the left loop property, which is the identity map by Step (1). | |
| 3 | is equal to the identity map. | Step (2) | |||
| 4 | We have . This simplifies to . | Step (3) | By Step (3), we obtain that and thus it simplifies to . | ||
| 5 | left loop property | we use that | |||
| 6 | We have . In particular, exists and is uniquely determined by . | Step (5) | Consider the gyroassociativity of : . Simplifying the left side gives . Now use Step (5) and we are done. |
Steps (4) and (6) complete the proof.
