Abstract

Are we biologically biased towards thinking that products, sums and the like always require the contribution of exactly two agents in order to spawn a third one? We will survey some sample theories where ternary (and higher) algebraic operations show up and see that sometimes, there is a binary structure governing these somewhat exotic structures and that on other occasions, this is less true.
