Abstract: | We describe the equational theory of the class of cancellative entropic algebras of a fixed type. We prove that a cancellative
entropic algebra embeds into an entropic polyquasigroup, a natural generalization of a quasigroup. In fact our results are
even more general and some corollaries hold also for non-entropic algebras. For instance an algebra with a binary cancellative
term operation, which is a homomorphism, is quasi-affine. This gives a strengthening of K. Kearnes’ theorem. Our results generalize
theorems obtained earlier by M. Sholander and by J. Ježek and T. Kepka in the case of groupoids.
