Schreier loops
We study systematically the natural generalization of Schreier's extension theory to obtain proper loops and show that this construction gives a rich family of examples of loops in all traditional common, important loop classes.

After enumerating isomorphism types of at most five-element left distributive groupoids, we prove that a distributive groupoid with less than 81 elements is necessarily medial.
The semisymmetrization of an arbitrary quasigroup builds a semisymmetric quasigroup structure on the cube of the underlying set of the quasigroup. It serves to reduce homotopies to homomorphisms. An alternative semisymmetrization on the square of the underlying set was recently introduced by A. Krapež and Z. Petrić. Their construction in fact yields a Mendelsohn quasigroup, which is idempotent as well as semisymmetric. We describe it as the Mendelsohnization of the original quasigroup. For quasigroups...
Simple quasigroups with commuting inner permutations are medial.
This short note is a continuation of and and its purpose is to show that every simple zeropotent paramedial groupoid containing at least three elements is strongly balanced in the sense of .
Under a multigraph it is meant in this paper a general incidence structure with finitely many points and blocks such that there are at least two blocks through any point and also at least two points on any block. Using submultigraphs with saturated points there are defined generating point sets, point bases and point skeletons. The main result is that the complement to any basis (skeleton) is a skeleton (basis).
