A variant of a BCI-algebra. One can define it by taking some of the axioms for a BCI-algebra and some of the important properties of a BCI-algebra. Specifically, a BCH-algebra is a non-empty set $X$ with a constant $0$ and a binary operation $*$ satisfying the following axioms:

1) $x * x = 0$;

2) if $x * y = 0$ and $y * x = 0$, then $x = y$;

3) $(x*y)*z = (x*z)*y$.

Clearly a BCI-algebra is a BCH-algebra; however, the converse is not true. While some work has been done on such algebras, generally they have not been as extensively investigated as BCI-algebras.
