Statement

Suppose (G,*) is a gyrogroup with neutral element e and inverse map 1. Then, (G,*) is a left inverse property loop with the same neutral element e and where the left inverse map is the same as the inverse map.

Proof

Given: A gyrogroup (G,*), elements a,bG.

To prove: There exists unique uG such that a*u=b and there exists unique yG such that v*a=b (together, these prove it's a loop). Further, u=a1*b (this shows the left inverse property).

Proof:

Step no. Assertion/construction Facts used Given data used Previous steps used Explanation
1 gyr[e,x] is the identity map for all xG. We note that, for any yG, e*(x*y)=x*y=(e*x)*y. By uniqueness of gyr[e,x]y, we get gyr[e,x]y=y.
2 Suppose x,zG are such that z*x=e. Then, gyr[z,x] is the identity map. gyroassociativity Step (1) By the left loop property, gyr[z,x]=gyr[z*x,x]=gyr[e,x] which is the identity map by Step (1).
3 gyr[a1,a] is equal to the identity map. Step (2)
4 We have a*u=ba1*(a*u)=a1*b. This simplifies to u=a1*b. Step (3) By Step (3), we obtain that a1*(a*u)=(a1*a)*u and thus it simplifies to e*u=u.
5 v*a=bgyr[v,a]=gyr[b,a] left loop property we use that gyr[v,a]=gyr[v*a,a]
6 We have v*a=bv=b*gyr[b,a](a1). In particular, v exists and is uniquely determined by a,b. Step (5) Consider the gyroassociativity of v,a,a1: v*(a*a1)=(v*a)*gyr[v,a]a1. Simplifying the left side gives v=(v*a)*gyr[v,a]a1. Now use Step (5) and we are done.

Steps (4) and (6) complete the proof.
