Abstract

We study the nilpotency degree of a relatively free finitely generated associative algebra with the identity x(n) = 0 over a finite field F with q elements. In the case of q >= n the nilpotency degree is proven to be the same as in the case of an infinite field of the same characteristic. In the case of q = n - 1 it is shown that the nilpotency degree differs from the nilpotency degree for an infinite field of the same characteristic by at most one. The nilpotency degree is explicitly computed for n = 3. (AU)
