Universal enveloping algebras of products #
The universal enveloping algebra of a product of Lie algebras is the tensor product of their
universal enveloping algebras. The equivalence sends a canonical generator (x, y) to
ι(x) ⊗ 1 + 1 ⊗ ι(y). Its inverse sends a pure tensor to the product of the two canonical
inclusions.
This construction uses only the universal properties of enveloping algebras and tensor products; it does not require a Poincare--Birkhoff--Witt theorem or any freeness hypothesis. The componentwise product representation preserves products of stable lattices.

respective lattices under every enveloping-algebra element. This specializes
