Quasiidentities


In universal algebra, a quasi-identity is an implication of the form

where s1, ..., sn, s and t1, ..., tn,t are terms built up from variables using the operation symbols of the specified signature.

Quasi-identities amount to conditional equations for which the conditions themselves are equations. A quasi-identity for which n = 0 is an ordinary identity or equation, whence quasi-identities are a generalization of identities. Quasi-identities are special type of Horn clauses.
