We classify small, non-associative division algebras up to isotopy. We reduce the classification problem to an involved case distinction that a computer program can solve. As a result, we classify algebras with 4, 8, 16, and 9 elements. In particular, we show that non-associative division algebras of size 4, 8, and 9 are isotopes of a Galois field, whereas there are three isotopy classes of division algebras with 16 elements.
Keywords:
