Theorem
Let $\struct {X, \circ}$ be a $B$-algebra.
Then $\circ$ is a left cancellable operation.
Proof
Let $x, y, z \in X$:
\(\ds x \circ y\) | \(=\) | \(\ds x \circ z\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \leadstoandfrom \ \ \) | \(\ds 0 \circ \paren {x \circ y}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds 0 \circ \paren {x \circ z}\) | $0$ in $B$-Algebra is Left Cancellable Element | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadstoandfrom \ \ \) | \(\ds \paren {0 \circ \paren {0 \circ y} } \circ x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \paren {0 \circ \paren {0 \circ z} } \circ x\) | Identity: $x \circ \paren {y \circ z} = \paren {x \circ \paren {0 \circ z} } \circ y$ | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadstoandfrom \ \ \) | \(\ds \paren {0 \circ y} \circ x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \paren {0 \circ z} \circ x\) | $0$ in $B$-Algebra is Left Cancellable Element | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadstoandfrom \ \ \) | \(\ds y \circ x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds z \circ x\) | $0$ in $B$-Algebra is Left Cancellable Element | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadstoandfrom \ \ \) | \(\ds y\) | \(=\) | \(\ds z\) | $B$-Algebra is Right Cancellable |
Hence the result.
