=====Rectangular bands=====

Abbreviation: **RBand**
====Definition====
A \emph{rectangular band} is a [[bands]] $\mathbf{B}=\langle B,\cdot
\rangle $ such that

$\cdot $ is rectangular:  $x\cdot y\cdot x=x$.
====Definition====
A \emph{rectangular band} is a [[bands]] $\mathbf{B}=\langle B,\cdot
\rangle $ such that

$x\cdot y\cdot z=x\cdot z$.
==Morphisms==
Let $\mathbf{B}$ and $\mathbf{C}$ be rectangular bands. A morphism from $\mathbf{B}$
to $\mathbf{C}$ is a function $h:B\rightarrow C$ that is a homomorphism: 

$h(xy)=h(x)h(y)$
