Wajsberg hoops
Definition
A \emph{Wajsberg hoop} is a hoop $\mathbf{A}=\langle A, \cdot, \rightarrow, 1\rangle$ such that
$(x\rightarrow y)\rightarrow y = (y\rightarrow x)\rightarrow x$
Remark: Lattice operations are term-definable by $x\wedge y=x\cdot(x\rightarrow y)$ and $x\vee y=(x\rightarrow y)\rightarrow y$.
Morphisms
Let $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ be Wajsberg hoops. A morphism from $\mathbf{A}$ to $\mathbf{B}$ is a function $h:A\rightarrow B$ that is a homomorphism:
$h(x\cdot y)=h(x)\cdot h(y)$, $h(x\rightarrow y)=h(x)\rightarrow h(y) $, $h(1)=1$
