Free graded Lie algebra ($\mathbb{L}(V)$)

For a positively graded vector space $V$, the free graded Lie algebra $\mathbb{L}(V)$ receives a linear map from $V$ and extends every graded linear map $V\to L$ uniquely to a Lie homomorphism. Over $\mathbb{Q}$, it is the Lie subalgebra generated by $V$ inside the tensor algebra $T(V)$, using $[u,v]=uv-(-1{)}^{|u||v|}vu$. Its universal enveloping algebra is $T(V)$: both have the same universal property for maps from $V$ into associative algebras. The primitives of the tensor Hopf algebra with primitive generators are exactly $\mathbb{L}(V)$.
