Abstract
We show how the definitions of the classical Lie groups have to be modified in the case where Grassmann variables are present. In particular we construct the general linear, the special linear and the orthosymplectic graded Lie groups. Special attention is paid to the question of how to formulate an adequate ’’unitarity condition.’’Keywords
