Size functions

Niel Shell (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce the notion of a nonarchimedean size function similar to the notion of a size function introduced by Marcos. We describe a class of ring topologies on fields that are complete, neither first countable nor locally bounded, but have topologically nilpotent elements.

On Kolchin's theorem.

Israel N. Herstein (1986)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Similarity:

A well-known theorem due to Kolchin states that a semi-group G of unipotent matrices over a field F can be brought to a triangular form over the field F [4, Theorem H]. Recall that a matrix A is called unipotent if its only eigenvalue is 1, or, equivalently, if the matrix I - A is nilpotent. Many years ago I noticed that this result of Kolchin is an immediate consequence of a too-little known result due to Wedderburn [6]. This result of Wedderburn asserts that if B is a finite...

Group rings with FC-nilpotent unit groups.

Vikas Bist (1991)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

Let U(RG) be the unit group of the group ring RG. Groups G such that U(RG) is FC-nilpotent are determined, where R is the ring of integers Z or a field K of characteristic zero.
