In this paper we study degenerations of nilpotent Lie algebras. If λ, μ are two points in the variety of nilpotent Lie algebras, then λ is said to degenerate to μ , λ→deg μ , if μ lies in the Zariski closure of the orbit of λ . It is known that all degenerations of nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension n < 7 can be realized via a one-parameter subgroup. We construct degenerations between characte...

the zero-divisor graph of a commutative ring r with respect to nilpotent elements is a simple undirected graph $gamma_n^*(r)$ with vertex set z_n(r)*, and two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy is nilpotent and xy is nonzero, where z_n(r)={x in r: xy is nilpotent, for some y in r^*}. in this paper, we investigate the basic properties of $gamma_n^*(r)$. we discuss when it will be eu...

We associate a graph NG with a group G (called the non-nilpotent graph of G) as follows: take G as the vertex set and two vertices are adjacent if they generate a non-nilpotent subgroup. In this paper we study the graph theoretical properties of NG and its induced subgraph on G\nil(G), where nil(G) = {x ∈ G | 〈x, y〉 is nilpotent for all y ∈ G}. For any finite group G, we prove that NG has eithe...

We exhibit pseudo Riemannian manifolds which are Szabó nilpotent of arbitrary order, or which are Osserman nilpotent of arbitrary order, or which are Ivanov-Petrova nilpotent of order 3.

Let $R$ be a ring with unity. The undirected nilpotent graph of $R$, denoted by $Gamma_N(R)$, is a graph with vertex set ~$Z_N(R)^* = {0neq x in R | xy in N(R) for some y in R^*}$, and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy in N(R)$, or equivalently, $yx in N(R)$, where $N(R)$ denoted the nilpotent elements of $R$. Recently, it has been proved that if $R$ is a left A...

 Letbe a ring with an endomorphism and an -derivationAntoine studied the structure of the set of nilpotent elements in Armendariz rings and introduced nil-Armendariz rings. In this paper we introduce and investigate the notion of nil--compatible rings. The class of nil--compatible rings are extended through various ring extensions and many classes of nil--compatible rings are constructed. We al...

where g±d 6= 0. The positive integer d is called the depth of this Z-grading, and of the nilpotent element e. This notion was previously studied e.g. in [P1]. An element of g of the form e+ F , where F is a non-zero element of g−d, is called a cyclic element, associated with e. In [K1] Kostant proved that any cyclic element, associated with a principal (= regular) nilpotent element e, is regula...

In this paper, we define hedge operation on a residuated skew lattice and investigate some its properties. We get relationships between some special sets as dense, nilpotent, idempotent, regular elements sets and their hedges.  By examples, we show that hedge of a dense element is not a dense and hedge of a regular element is not a regular. Also hedge of a nilpotent element is a nilpotent and h...

Mal’cev showed in the 1950s that there is a correspondence between radicable torsion-free nilpotent groups and rational nilpotent Lie algebras. In this paper we show how to establish the connection between the radicable hull of a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group and its corresponding Lie algebra algorithmically. We apply it to fast multiplication of elements of polycyclically pre...

This paper describes an algorithm for computing maximal tori of the reductive centralizer of a nilpotent element of an exceptional complex symmetric space. It illustrates also a good example of the use of Computer Algebra Systems to help answer important questions in the field of pure mathematics. Such tori play a fundamental rôle in several problems such as: classification of nilpotent orbits ...
