$BL$-algebra
A linear algebra $A$ over a field $F$ any two elements of which generate a Lie subalgebra. The class of all binary Lie algebras over a given field $F$ generates a variety which, if the characteristic of $F$ is different from 2, is given by the system of identities
$$x^2=J(xy,x,y)=0,\tag{*}$$
where
$$J(x,y,z)=(xy)z+(yz)x+(zx)y.$$
If the characteristic of $F$ is 2 and its cardinal number is not less than 4, the class of binary Lie algebras can be defined not only by the system of identities \ref{*}, but also by the identity
$$J([(xy)y]x,x,y)=0.$$
The tangent algebra of an analytic local alternative loop is a binary Lie algebra and vice versa.
