AbstractTwo local nilpotent properties of an associative or alternative ringAcontaining an idempotent are shown. First, ifA=A11+A10+A01+A00is the Peirce decomposition ofArelative toethen ifais associative or semiprime alternative and 3-torsion free then any locally nilpotent idealBofAiigenerates a locally nilpotent ideal 〈B〉 ofA. As a consequenceL(Aii) =Aii∩L(A)for the Levitzki radicalL. Also bounds are given for the index of nilpotency of any finitely generated subring of 〈B〉. Second, ifA(x)denotes a homotope ofAthenL(A)⊆L(A(x))and, in particular, ifA(x)is an isotope ofAthenL(A)=L(A(x)).

Right Alternative Ring

Some properties of the right nucleus in generalized right alternative rings have been presented in this paper. In a generalized right alternative ring R which is finitely generated or free of locally nilpotent ideals, the right nucleus Nr equals the center C. Also, if R is prime and Nr ¹ C, then the associator ideal of R is locally nilpotent. Seong Nam [5] studied the properties of the right nucleus in right alternative algebra. He showed that if R is a prime right alternative algebra of char. ≠ 2 and Right nucleus Nr is not equal to the center C, then the associator ideal of R is locally nilpotent. But the problem arises when it come with the study of generalized right alternative ring as the ring dose not absorb the right alternative identity. In this paper we consider our ring to be generalized right alternative ring and try to prove the results of Seong Nam [5]. At the end of this paper we give an example to show that the generalized right alternative ring is not right alternative.

AbstractA group G is said to have the FINITE INDEX property (G is an FI-group) if, whenever H≤G, xp ∈ H for some x in G and p > 0, then |〈H, x〉: H| is finite. Following a brief discussion of some locally nilpotent groups with this property, it is shown that torsion-free solvable groups of finite rank which have the isolator property are FI-groups. It is deduced from this that a finitely generated torsion-free solvable group has an FI-subgroup of finite index if and only if it has finite rank.

The Ideal

Let A be a nonassociative algebra. We let An denote the subalgebra generated by all products of n elements from A. Inductively we define A(0) = A and A(n+1) = (A(n))2. We say that A is nilpotent if, for some n, An = {0}. A is solvable if A(n) = {0} for some n. An algebra is locally nilpotent (locally solvable) if each finitely generated subalgebra is nilpotent (solvable). In this paper will always be some variety of algebras defined by a set of homogeneous identities. We say that local nilpotence is a radical property in if each contains a maximal locally nilpotent ideal L and A/L has no non-zero locally nilpotent ideals. The ideal L is then called the Levitzki radical of A.

AbstractIn general polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating cyclic subgroups need not be residually finite. In this paper we prove that polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating maximal cyclic subgroups such that the amalgamated cycles generate an isolated subgroup in the vertex group containing them, are residually finite. We also prove that, for finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups, if the subgroups generated by the amalgamated cycles have the same nilpotency classes as their respective vertex groups, then their polygonal product is residually finite.

AbstractIn this paper, we characterize the genus of an arbitrary torsion-free finitely generated nilpotent group of class two and of Hirsch length six by means of a finite number of arithmetical invariants. An algorithm which permits the enumeration of all possible genera that can occur under the conditions above is also given.

Nil Ring

An outstanding unsolved problem in the theory of rings is the existence or non-existence of a simple nil ring. Such a ring cannot be locally nilpotent as is well known [ 5 ]. Hence, if a simple nil ring were to exist, it would follow that there exists a finitely generated nil ring which is not nilpotent. This seemed an unlikely situation until the appearance of Golod's paper [ 1 ] where a finitely generated, non-nilpotent ring is constructed for any d ≥ 2 generators over any field.

AbstractThe main result indicates that every finitely generated, residually finite, torsion-free, cohopfian group having on free Abelian subgroup of rank two is hyperhopfian. The argument relies on earlier work and ideas of Hirshon. As a corollary, fundamental groups of all closed hyperbolic manifolds are hyperhopfian.

Derivation Formula

Let [Formula: see text] be the polynomial algebra in [Formula: see text] variables over a field [Formula: see text] of characteristic 0. The classical theorem of Weitzenböck from 1932 states that for linear locally nilpotent derivations [Formula: see text] (known as Weitzenböck derivations), the algebra of constants [Formula: see text] is finitely generated. When the Weitzenböck derivation [Formula: see text] acts on the polynomial algebra [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] variables by [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], Nowicki conjectured that [Formula: see text] is generated by [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text]. There are several proofs based on different ideas confirming this conjecture. Considering arbitrary Weitzenböck derivations of the free [Formula: see text]-generated metabelian Lie algebra [Formula: see text], with few trivial exceptions, the algebra [Formula: see text] is not finitely generated. However, the vector subspace [Formula: see text] of the commutator ideal [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is finitely generated as a [Formula: see text]-module. In this paper, we study an analogue of the Nowicki conjecture in the Lie algebra setting and give an explicit set of generators of the [Formula: see text]-module [Formula: see text].
