Hello

is there a word for $x(yx)=(xy)x$ ?

The word is flexible. We don't seem to have anything on Wikipedia, but PlanetMath has an entry on flexible algebras. --Zundark 16:54, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We do now have flexible algebra. —Toby Bartels (talk) 17:34, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Added the technical tag. Could we maybe add a concrete example (perhaps an alternative ring?) Furthermore in the same vein as the page for Associative, we should maybe describe it in the general sense of arithmetic before moving on to abstract algebra. --140.211.90.206 (talk) 19:30, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
