Jacobi Identity

Let + , [ , ] : A × A A : 𝐴 𝐴 𝐴 +,[-,-]:A\times A\to A be a pair of Binary Operations, and 0 0 a 2-sided unit for addition. These two operations are said to satisfy the Jacobi Identity if:

Note that each of the successive brackets has been rotated left by 1; in fact, these are precisely the Even Permutations of ( x , y , z ) 𝑥 𝑦 𝑧 (x,y,z) .
