Let be a partial E-ring, and an -module. (There is no exponential structure on ; it is just a module in the usual sense.) A derivation from to is a map such that for each ,

We can turn a one-component chord diagram with a base point into an arrow diagram according to the following rule. Starting from the base point we travel along the diagram with doubled chords. During this journey we pass both copies of each chord in opposite directions. Choose an arrow on each chord which corresponds to the direction of the first passage of the copies of the chord. Here is an example.

Whenever an element admits an inverse it can be shown to be unique and is denoted . If we replace in the above definition with and “semigroup” with “group” we obtain an ordinary vector (or linear) space.
