Abstract
In this paper we consider an algebraic generalization of symmetric spaces of noncom pact type to a more general class of symmetric structures equipped with midpoints. These symmetric structures are shown to have close relationships to and even categorical equivalences with a variety of other algebraic structures: axiomatic midpoint spaces, uniquely 2-divisible twisted subgroups, transversal twisted subgroups of involutive groups, a special class of loops called B-Ioops, and gyrocommutative gyrogroups.
