This is a combinatorial study of the Poincaré polynomials of isotypic components of a natural family of graded G L(n)-modules supported in the closure of a nilpotent conjugacy class. These polynomials generalize the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials and are q-analogues of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients
## Abstract Let __G__ be a __p__ ‐group of maximal class of order __p__^__m__^ , __p__ ≠ 2, and __c__ (__G__) the degree of commutativity of __G__. Let __c__~0~ be the nonnegative residue of __c__ modulo __p__ – 1. In this paper, by using only Lie algebra techniques, we prove that 2__c ≥ m__ – 2__p
We describe the upper and lower Lie nilpotency index of a modular group algebra ކG of some metabelian group G and apply these results to determine the nilpotency class of the group of units, extending certain results of Shalev without restriction to finite groups. A characterization of modular gro
