Unipotent orbits of elements in a quaternion ring of odd order

Abstract

Let n\NNn \in \NN and let q=prq=p^r be an odd prime power. Let RR be a finite commutative local principal ring of cardinality qnq^{n} with R/J(R)GF(q)R/J(R) \simeq GF(q). We study the conjugation action of the group of all unipotent elements in the quaternion ring H(R)H(R) on H(R)H(R) and we classify the resulting unipotent similarity classes, using a reduction to the ring of 22-by-22 matrices over RR.
