摘要
We study the set P(N-B) of all possible Jordan canonical forms of nilpotent matrices commuting with a given nilpotent matrix B. We describe P(N-B)in the special case when B has only one Jordan block and discuss some consequences. In the general case, we find the maximal possible index of nilpotency in the set of all nilpotent matrices commuting with a given nilpotent matrix. We consider several examples.
