<logic> First-order equational logic consists of
quantifier-free terms of ordinary first-order logic, with
equality as the only predicate symbol. The model theory
of this logic was developed into Universal algebra by
Birkhoff et al. [Birkhoff, Gratzer, Cohn]. It was later made
into a branch of category theory by Lawvere ("algebraic
theories").
