    • Source: Nilpotent algebra
    • In mathematics, specifically in ring theory, a nilpotent algebra over a commutative ring is an algebra over a commutative ring, in which for some positive integer n every product containing at least n elements of the algebra is zero. The concept of a nilpotent Lie algebra has a different definition, which depends upon the Lie bracket. (There is no Lie bracket for many algebras over commutative rings; a Lie algebra involves its Lie bracket, whereas, there is no Lie bracket defined in the general case of an algebra over a commutative ring.) Another possible source of confusion in terminology is the quantum nilpotent algebra, a concept related to quantum groups and Hopf algebras.


      Formal definition


      An associative algebra



      A


      {\displaystyle A}

      over a commutative ring



      R


      {\displaystyle R}

      is defined to be a nilpotent algebra if and only if there exists some positive integer



      n


      {\displaystyle n}

      such that



      0
      =

      y

      1




      y

      2






      y

      n




      {\displaystyle 0=y_{1}\ y_{2}\ \cdots \ y_{n}}

      for all




      y

      1


      ,


      y

      2


      ,


      ,


      y

      n




      {\displaystyle y_{1},\ y_{2},\ \ldots ,\ y_{n}}

      in the algebra



      A


      {\displaystyle A}

      . The smallest such



      n


      {\displaystyle n}

      is called the index of the algebra



      A


      {\displaystyle A}

      . In the case of a non-associative algebra, the definition is that every different multiplicative association of the



      n


      {\displaystyle n}

      elements is zero.


      Nil algebra


      A power associative algebra in which every element of the algebra is nilpotent is called a nil algebra.
      Nilpotent algebras are trivially nil, whereas nil algebras may not be nilpotent, as each element being nilpotent does not force products of distinct elements to vanish.
