    The Gerstenhaber algebra of a Lie algebra \(h\) with a complex structure \(J\) is the exterior algebra of a semi-direct product Lie algebra. Therefore, looking for a weak mirror image for \((h,J)\), it is natural to search among semi-direct products. First, complex symplectic structures adopted to a semi-direct product Lie algebra are briefly analyzed. If \(g\) is a Lie algebra endowed with a symplectic structure \(\omega\) and a torsion free symplectic connection \(\gamma\), then the semi-direct product \(g\ltimes_{\gamma}V\) admits a complex symplectic structure \(\Omega\) such that \(g\) and \(V\) are totally real and Lagrangian with respect to the real part of \(\Omega\). Moreover, every complex symplectic structure on a Lie algebra with such characteristics arises in this way. Algebras with such complex symplectic structures are called special Lagrangian. In Theorem 5.2 it is shown that a semi-direct product Lie algebra special Lagrangian with respect to the complex symplectic structure \((\Omega, J)\) is its own weak mirror symmetry in the sense that the associated differential Gerstenhaber algebras controlling the extended deformations of \(\Omega\) and \(J\) are isomorphic. The last section is dedicated to its relation to hypersymplectic geometry. Namely, Theorem 6.1 states that if \(g\) is a symplectic Lie algebra with a torsion free flat symplectic connection \(\gamma\) on the underlying vector space of the Lie algebra, then the space \(h=g\ltimes_{\gamma}V\) admits a hypersymplectic structure \(\{\Omega_1,\Omega_2,\Omega_3\}\) such that the Levi-Civita connection \(\Gamma\) of the associated neutral metric is flat and symplectic with respect to each of the three given symplectic structures. In particular, each of these three symplectic structures induces a complex symplectic structure on \(h\ltimes_{\Gamma}W\), where \(W\) is the underlying vector space of the algebra \(h\). Finally, examples generalizing the hypersymplectic structures on Kodaira-Thurston surfaces are constructed.
