SYNOPSISScattered through the literature various structures occur that generalize median graphs and median algebras: quasi-median graphs, retracts of Hamming graphs, graphs of finite windex, isotropic media, subdirect products of simplex algebras, certain ternary algebras, and so on. We connect them all up, provide some new generalizations of quasi-median graphs, some new sets of axioms for quasi-median algebras, and some shorter proofs as well. 0 1994 John Wiley&Sons, Inc.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
