Abstract

In this paper, we consider polygroup $〈 P, \circ, 1,^{- 1} 〉$ and prove necessary and sufficient conditions such that $P$ is non-commutative. Then by using the Maple programming, we obtain all polygroups of order less than five up to isomorphism. In fact, we determine all 115 non-isomorphic polygroups of order less than five and characterize them by their fundamental groups, i.e., polygroups with same fundamental group, say $G$ , classifies in the class $[G]$ . Finally, we obtain that the fundamental groups of 94 polygroups are the trivial group. The numbers of polygroups in classes $[ℤ_{2}]$ and $[ℤ_{3}]$ are 16 and 3, respectively, and the classes $[ℤ_{2} \times ℤ_{2}]$ and $[ℤ_{4}]$ are singleton.
