An algebra, also called a nilalgebra, consisting only of nilpotent Elements.

A group G is nilpotent if the upper central sequence 1=Z_0<=Z_1<=Z_2<=...<=Z_n<=... of the group terminates with Z_n=G for some n. Nilpotent groups have the property that ...

There are two equivalent definitions for a nilpotent matrix. 1. A square matrix whose eigenvalues are all 0. 2. A square matrix A such that A^n is the zero matrix 0 for some ...

A pile of counters in a game of nim. The nim-heap illustrated above corresponds to the game of Marienbad.

Any cubic curve that passes through eight of the nine intersections of two given cubic curves automatically passes through the ninth.

Let S_N(s)=sum_(n=1)^infty[(n^(1/N))]^(-s), (1) where [x] denotes nearest integer function, i.e., the integer closest to x. For s>3, S_2(s) = 2zeta(s-1) (2) S_3(s) = ...

A nowhere-neat dissection in which squares of the same size are not allowed to share any part of a side.

Let M be a finitely generated module over a commutative Noetherian ring R. Then there exists a finite set {N_i|1<=i<=l} of submodules of M such that 1. intersection ...

An extremely powerful theorem in physics which states that each symmetry of a system leads to a physically conserved quantity. Symmetry under translation corresponds to ...

Any irreducible curve may be carried by a factorable Cremona transformation into one with none but ordinary singular points.
