Cubic structure

In this paper we examine the relationships between cubic structures, totally symmetric medial quasigroups, and commutative groups. We prove that the existence of a cubic structure on the given set is equivalent to the existence of a totally symmetric medial quasigroup on this set, and it is equivalent to the existence of a commutative group on this set. We give also some interesting geometric examples of cubic structures. By means of these examples, each theorem that can be proved for an abstract cubic structure has a number of geometric consequences. In the final part of the paper, we prove also some simple properties of abstract cubic structures.
