In this paper we characterize all nilpotent orbits under the action by conjugation that intersect the nilpotent centralizer of a nilpotent matrix $B$ consisting of two Jordan blocks of the same size. We list all the possible Jordan…

We study the set $\partition{\nb}$ of all possible Jordan canonical forms of nilpotent matrices commuting with a given nilpotent matrix $B$. We describe $\partition{\nb}$ in the special case when $B$ has only one Jordan block. In the…

We introduce a method to determine the maximum nilpotent orbit which intersects a variety of nilpotent matrices described by a strictly upper triangular matrix over a polynomial ring. We show that the result only depends on the ranks of its…

We study the structure of the nilpotent commutator $\nb$ of a nilpotent matrix $B$. We show that $\nb$ intersects all nilpotent orbits for conjugation if and only if $B$ is a square--zero matrix. We describe nonempty intersections of $\nb$…

To any pair of commuting n x n nilpotent matrices it is associated a pair of partitions of n. We describe a maximal nilpotent subalgebra of the centralizer of a given nilpotent n x n matrix and prove a conjecture of Polona Oblak which…

We give a complete classification of the Jordan types occurring in the nilpotent commutator of a nilpotent matrix whose Jordan type is a hook partition. As a consequence, we also show that two partitions with the same generic commuting…

It is well-known that a nilpotent n by n matrix B is determined up to conjugacy by a partition of n formed by the sizes of the Jordan blocks of B. We call this partition the Jordan type of B. We obtain partial results on the following…

An $n\times n$ nilpotent matrix $B$ is determined up to conjugacy by a partition $P_B$ of $n$, its Jordan type given by the sizes of its Jordan blocks. The Jordan type $\mathfrak D(P)$ of a nilpotent matrix in the dense orbit of the…

We prove the Box Conjecture for pairs of commuting nilpotent matrices, as formulated by Iarrobino et al [28]. This describes the Jordan type of the dense orbit in the nilpotent commutator of a given nilpotent matrix. Our main tool is the…

This paper explores the behaviour of commuting Jordan derivations over prime rings with non-trivial idempotents and demonstrates that they become zero maps. Further, it establishes this result for commuting Jordan higher derivations over…

Let $k$ be an infinite field. Fix a Jordan nilpotent $n$ by $n$ matrix $B = J_P$ with entries in $k$ and associated Jordan type $P$. Let $Q(P)$ be the Jordan type of a generic nilpotent matrix commuting with $B$. In this paper, we use the…

Subsets of a matrix algebra over a field that are invariant under conjugation and contain the linear span of each two of their commuting elements are described. They obviously include the subsets of diagonalizable and nilpotent matrices. In…

Let $B$ be a nilpotent matrix and suppose that its Jordan canonical form is determined by a partition $\lambda$. Then it is known that its nilpotent commutator $N_B$ is an irreducible variety and that there is a unique partition $\mu$ such…

I.M. Gelfand and V.A. Ponomarev (1969) proved that the problem of classifying pairs (A,B) of commuting nilpotent operators on a vector space contains the problem of classifying an arbitrary t-tuple of linear operators. Moreover, it contains…

This is a survey article prepared for the submission to "Handbook of moduli". The following topics are discussed: (i) Basic facts and examples of resolutions for nilpotent orbit (ii) Q-factorial terminalizations of nilpotent orbit closures…

We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of GL_n(C) on the variety of x-nilpotent complex matrices. We obtain a criterion as to whether the action admits a finite number of orbits and specify a…

In this paper we completely characterize all possible pairs of Jordan canonical forms for mutually annihilating nilpotent pairs, i.e. pairs $(A,B)$ of nilpotent matrices such that $AB=BA=0$.

We investigate the nilpotence of a kind of circulant matrices $T_{n,m}$ over field $Z_p$ where $T_{n,m}= \sum_{i = 0}^{m - 1} {S_n^i}$ and $S_n$ is the fundamental circulant matrix of order $n$. The necessary and sufficient condition on $n$…

In this article, we give a complete characterization of the bijective maps which commute with the mean transform under Jordan product. The main result is the following : Let $H,K$ be two complex Hilbert spaces and $\Phi :B(H) \to B(K)$ be a…
