A rotor includes permanent magnets arranged such that magnetic poles of N poles and S poles are arranged alternately in a rotation circumferential direction. The permanent magnets form a plurality of rows in a rotation axis direction. The rotor includes a change section in which arrangements of the magnetic poles change with respect to the rotation axis direction due to the permanent magnets being arranged such that arrangements of the magnetic poles change, in the rotation circumferential direction, between the permanent magnets in the plurality of rows. A stator includes tooth sections opposed to the rotor to surround the rotor, and auxiliary slots each of which is selectively formed at one portion of a front end portion of each tooth section in the rotation axis direction such that substantially a center of the auxiliary slot in the rotation axis direction is opposed to the change section.
