Abstract
A BiHom-associative algebra is a (nonassociative) algebra $A$ endowed with two commuting multiplicative linear maps $\alpha,\beta\colon A\rightarrow A$ such that $\alpha (a)(bc)=(ab)\beta (c)$, for all $a, b, c\in A$. This concept arose in the study of algebras in so-called group Hom-categories. In this paper, we introduce as well BiHom-Lie algebras (also by using the categorical approach) and BiHom-bialgebras. We discuss these new structures by presenting some basic properties and constructions (representations, twisted tensor products, smash products etc).

Key words: BiHom-associative algebra; BiHom-Lie algebra; BiHom-bialgebra; representation; twisting; smash product.
