    Let \(L\) be a Lie algebra, \(s\in[a,b]\subset R\), and \(K(s)\in L\). Then the Lie integral is defined as \(L\int^ b_ a K(s)ds=\sum^ \infty_{n=1}H_ n(a,b)\), where \(H_ 1(a,b)=\int^ b_ a K(s)ds\) and \(H_ n(a,b)\) is determined by a recursion formula in which the generalization of Bach's formula, namely the form of \(B_ N(X_ 1,\dots,X_ N)\), where \(e^{X_ 1}\dots e^{X_ N}=e^{B_ N(X_ 1,\dots,X_ N)}\), plays a prominent part. In some conditions the differential equation \(d\chi/dt=K(t)\chi(t)\) has a solution of the form \(\chi(t)=\left\{\exp\left[L\int^ t_ a K(s)ds\right]\right\}\cdot\chi(a)\). --- Many intermediary results are obtained.
