Let and be graded Lie algebras whose grading is in or , but only one of them. Suppose that is a derivatively knitted pair of representations for , i.e. and satisfy equations which look “derivatively knitted"; then , endowed with a suitable bracket, which mimics semidirect products on both sides, becomes a graded Lie algebra . This graded Lie algebra is called the knit product of and . The author investigates the general situation for any graded Lie subalgebras and of a graded Lie algebra such that and . He proves that as a graded Lie algebra is isomorphic to a knit product of and . Also he investigates the behaviour of homomorphisms with respect to knit products. The integrated version of a knit product of Lie algebras is called a knit product of group!
