We give a sufficient criterion for generic local functional equations for submodule zeta functions associated to nilpotent algebras of endomorphisms defined over number fields. This allows us, in particular, to prove various conjectures on such functional equations for ideal zeta functions of nilpotent Lie lattices. Via the Mal’cev correspondence, these results have corollaries pertaining to ze...

This is a toy example to illustrate some of the techniques of fusion and transfer as described in Gorenstein’s text Finite Groups. Finite groups with a unique subgroup of order p (p an odd prime) are classified in terms of a cyclic p′-extension of relatively simple combinatorial data. This note is intended to address a slightly misstated exercise in somewhat more detail and to be a toy example ...

We determine the number of nilpotent matrices of order n over Fq that are selfadjoint for a given nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form, and in particular find the number of symmetric nilpotent matrices.

Let G be a complex simple algebraic group and let g be its Lie algebra. A nilpotent orbit O in g is an orbit of a nilpotent element of g by the adjoint action of G on g. Then O admits a natural symplectic 2-form ω and the nilpotent orbit closure Ō has symplectic singularities in the sense of [Be] and [Na3] (cf. [Pa], [Hi]). In [Ri], Richardson introduced the notion of so-called the Richadson or...

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra. Fix a Borel subalgebra b and a Cartan subalgebra t ⊂ b. The nilpotent radical of b is denoted by u. The corresponding set of positive (resp. simple) roots is ∆ (resp. Π). An ideal of b is called ad-nilpotent, if it is contained in [b, b]. The theory of ad-nilpotent ideals has attracted much recent attention in the work of Kostant, Cellini-Papi, Sommers, an...

In this paper, first we introduce the notions of k-nilpotent (solvable) ideals and BCK-algebras. Specially, show that every commutative ideal is 1-nilpotent (solvable). Second, state an equivalent condition to k-nilpotency (solvablity) BCK-algebra. Finally, study n-fold 2-nilpotent BCK-algebras as a generalization BCK-algebras, relation between these two concepts. Basically, compare solvable (B...

A problem of reducing intuitionistic fuzzy matrices is examined and some useful properties are obtained with respect to nilpotent intutionistic fuzzy matrices. First, reduction of irreflexive and transitive intuitionistic fuzzy matrices are considered, and then the properties are applied to nilpotent intutionistic fuzzy matrices. Nilpotent intuitionistic fuzzy matrices are intuitionistic fuzzy ...

The isomorphism problem for centrally nilpotent loops can be tackled by methods of cohomology. We develop tools based on cohomology and linear algebra that either lend themselves to direct count of the isomorphism classes (notably in the case of nilpotent loops of order 2q, q a prime), or lead to efficient classification computer programs. This allows us to enumerate all nilpotent loops of orde...
