Abstract: The unified product was defined in cite{am3} related to the restricted extending structure problem for Hopf algebras: a Hopf algebra E factorizes through a Hopf subalgebra A and a subcoalgebra H such that 1inH if and only if E is isomorphic to a unified product AltimesH. Using the concept of normality of a morphism of coalgebras in the sense of Andruskiewitsch and Devoto we prove an equivalent description for the unified product from the point of view of split morphisms of Hopf algebras. A Hopf algebra E is isomorphic to a unified product AltimesH if and only if there exists a morphism of Hopf algebras i:AightarrowE which has a retraction pi:EoA that is a normal left A-module coalgebra morphism. A necessary and sufficient condition for the canonical morphism i:AoAltimesH to be a split monomorphism of bialgebras is proved, i.e. a condition for the unified product AltimesH to be isomorphic to a Radford biproduct LastA, for some bialgebra L in the category AAmathcalYD of Yetter-Drinfel'd modules. As a consequence, we present a general method to construct unified products arising from an unitary not necessarily associative bialgebra H that is a right A-module coalgebra and a unitary coalgebra map gamma:HoA satisfying four compatibility conditions. Such an example is worked out in detail for a group G, a pointed right G-set (X,cdot,lhd) and a map gamma:GoX.
