Abstract
Let p>q be odd primes. We classify Bol loops and Bruck loops of order pq up to isotopism. When q does not divide p2â1, the only Bol loop (and hence the only Bruck loop) of order pq is the cyclic group of order pq. When q divides p2â1, there are precisely â(pâ1+4q)(2q)â1â Bol loops of order pq up to isotopism, including a unique nonassociative Bruck loop of order pq.
