\abbreviation{CanCMon}
\begin{definition}
A \emph{cancellative commutative monoid} is a \href{Cancellative_monoids.pdf}{cancellative monoid} $\mathbf{M}=\left\langle M,\cdot
,e\right\rangle $ such that

$\cdot $ is commutative:  $x\cdot y=y\cdot x$
\end{definition}
\begin{morphisms}
Let $\mathbf{M}$ and $\mathbf{N}$ be cancellative commutative monoids. A morphism from $\mathbf{M}$
to $\mathbf{N}$ is a function $h:M\rightarrow N$ that is a homomorphism: 

$h(x\cdot y)=h(x)\cdot h(y)$, $h(e)=e$
\end{morphisms}
\begin{basic_results}
All commutative free monoids are cancellative.

All finite commutative (left or right) cancellative monoids are reducts of \href{Abelian_groups.pdf}{abelian groups}.
\end{basic_results}
\begin{examples}
\begin{example}
$\langle\mathbb{N},+,0\rangle$, the natural numbers, with addition and
zero. 
\end{example}
