If 𝖃 is a class of groups, denote by F𝖃 the class of groups G such that for every $x{\in}G$, there exists a normal subgroup of finite index H(x) such that ${\langle}x,h{\rangle}{\in}$ 𝖃 for every $h{\in}H(x)$. In this paper, we consider the class F𝖃, when 𝖃 is the class of nilpotent-by-finite, finite-by-nilpotent and periodic-by-nilpotent groups. We will prove that for the above classes 𝖃 we have that a finitely generated hyper-(Abelian-by-finite) group in F𝖃 belongs to 𝖃. As a consequence of these results, we prove that when the nilpotency class of the subgroups (or quotients) of the subgroups ${\langle}x,h{\rangle}$ are bounded by a given positive integer k, then the nilpotency class of the corresponding subgroup (or quotient) of G is bounded by a positive integer c depending only on k.

Let R be a 2-primal strongly 2-nil-clean ring. We prove that every square matrix over R is the sum of a tripotent and a nilpotent matrices. The similar result for rings of bounded index is proved. We thereby provide a large class of rings over which every matrix is the sum of a tripotent and a nilpotent matrices.

It is known that a right nilpotent congruence $\beta$ on a finite algebra A is also left nilpotent [3]. The question on whether the left nilpotency class of $\beta$ in less than or equal to the right nilpotency class of $\beta$is still open. In this paper we find an upper limit for the left nilpotency class of $\beta$. In addition, under the assumption that 1 $\in$ typ{A}, we show that $(\beta]^k=[\beta)^k$ for all k$\geq$1. Thus the left and right nilpotency classes of $\beta$ are the same in this case.

A group G is said to satisfy the maximal condition on infinite normal subgroups if there does not exist an infinite properly ascending chain of infinite normal subgroups. We characterize the structure of locally nilpotent groups satisfying this chain condition. We then show how to construct locally nilpotent groups with the maximal condition on infinite normal subgroups, but not the maximal condition on subgroups.

It is known that generalized free products of finitely generated nilpotent groups are conjugacy separable when the amalgamated subgroups are cyclic or central in both factor groups. However, those generalized free products may not be conjugacy separable when the amalgamated subgroup is a direct product of two infinite cycles. In this paper we show that generalized free products of finitely generated nilpotent groups are conjugacy separable when the amalgamated subgroup is ${\langle}h{\rangle}{\times}D$, where D is in the center of both factors.

In this paper we generalize the Whitehead theorem which says that a homology equivalence implies a homotopy equivalence for nilpotent spaces. We make some theorems on a homotopy equivalence of non-nilpotent spaces, e.g., the solvable space or space satisfying the condition (T**) or space X with $\pi$1(X) Engel, or locally nilpotent space with some properties. Furthermore we find some conditions that the Wall invariant will be trivial.

In this paper, we prove that if $T{\in}L$(X) is a generalized scalar operator then Ker $T^p$ is the quasi-nilpotent part of T for some positive integer $p{\in}{\mathbb{N}}$. Moreover, we prove that a generalized scalar operator with finite spectrum is algebraic. In particular, a quasi-nilpotent generalized scalar operator is nilpotent.

We analyze properties of solvable and nilpotent algebras with bracket. The class of solvability and nilpotency of the tensor square of an algebra with bracket is obtained. Homological characterizations of nilpotent algebras with bracket are presented.

Let A and B be matrices which are polynomials in r pairwise commuting nilpotent matrices over a field. We give a sufficient condition for the null space of $A^i$ to equal that of $B^i$ for all i, in particular, for A and B to be similar.
