Digroups, their canonical pretorsion theory, and diheaps

Abstract

In the category of digroups there is a natural pretorsion theory in which the torsion-free digroups are all groups, and torsion digroups form a category isomorphic to the category of non-empty sets. It is also possible to extend the theory of heaps from groups to digroups. The corresponding notion is that of a diheap.
