We check that the connected centralisers of nilpotent elements in the orthogonal and symplectic groups have Levi decompositions in even characteristic. This provides a justification for the identification of the isomorphism classes of the reductive quotients as stated in [Liebeck, Seitz; Unipotent and Nilpotent Classes in Simple Algebraic Groups and Lie Algebras].

The description of nilpotent Chernikov $p$-groups with elementary tops is reduced to the study of tuples of skew-symmetric bilinear forms over the residue field $mathbb{F}_p$. If $p e2$ and the bottom of the group only consists of $2$ quasi-cyclic summands, a complete classification is given. We use the technique of quivers with relations.
Full residual finiteness growth of a finitely generated group $G$ measures how efficiently word metric $n$-balls of $G$ inject into finite quotients of $G$. We initiate a study of this growth over the class of nilpotent groups. When the last term of the lower central series of $G$ has finite index in the center of $G$ we show that the growth is precisely $n^b$, where $b$ is the product of the nilpotency class and dimension of $G$. In the general case, we give a method for finding an upper bound of the form $n^b$ where $b$ is a natural number determined by what we call a terraced filtration of $G$. Finally, we characterize nilpotent groups for which the word growth and full residual finiteness growth coincide.
Let $sigma ={sigma_{i} | iin I}$ be a partition of the set $Bbb{P}$ of all primes and $G$ a finite group. A chief factor $H/K$ of $G$ is said to be $sigma$-central if the semidirect product $(H/K)rtimes (G/C_{G}(H/K))$ is a $sigma_{i}$-group for some $i=i(H/K)$. $G$ is called $sigma$-nilpotent if every chief factor of $G$ is $sigma$-central. We say that $G$ is semi-${sigma}$-nilpotent (respectively weakly semi-${sigma}$-nilpotent) if the normalizer $N_{G}(A)$ of every non-normal (respectively every non-subnormal) $sigma$-nilpotent subgroup $A$ of $G$ is $sigma$-nilpotent. In this paper we determine the structure of finite semi-${sigma}$-nilpotent and weakly semi-${sigma}$-nilpotent groups.
We study an impartial game introduced by Anderson and Harary. The game is played by two players who alternately choose previously-unselected elements of a finite group. The first player who builds a generating set from the jointly-selected elements wins. We determine the nim-numbers of this game for finite groups of the form $T times H$, where $T$ is a $2$-group and $H$ is a group of odd order. This includes all nilpotent and hence abelian groups.
The authors have shown previously that every locally pro-p contraction group decomposes into the direct product of a p-adic analytic factor and a torsion factor. It has long been known that p-adic analytic contraction groups are nilpotent. We show here that the torsion factor is nilpotent too, and hence that every locally pro-p contraction group is nilpotent.
