Graded structure
An algebraic structure 𝐴 is graded by some set 𝑆, typically a monoid,
if it is the direct sum of subalgebras indexed by 𝑆 which are in some way invariant.
In addition there may be some law governing the grade of the product of elements of different grades,
A homomorphism of such structures is called graded or grade-preserving iff it maintains the grade of elements.
A note on notation: If 𝖦 is a category of structures, say gadgets, then the strict category of 𝑆-graded gadgets is 𝖦𝗋𝑆𝖦.
