Heap (mathematics)
text:
In abstract algebra, a semiheap is an algebraic structure consisting of a non-empty set H with a ternary operation denoted [ x , y , z ] ∈ H that satisfies a modified associativity property: A biunitary element h of a semiheap satisfies [h,h,k] = k = [k,h,h] for every k in H. A heap is a semiheap in which every element is biunitary. It can be thought of as a group with the identity element "forgotten". The term heap is derived from груда, Russian for "heap", "pile", or "stack". Anton Sushkevich
