Results Wehavesuccessfullycoveredthethreeinitialgoals.First,wehavedescribedindetail ad-nilpotentelementsbelongingtoasemiprimeassociativealgebra.Moreover,we havesucceededinreducingthetorsionintheclassi cationofad-nilpotentelements in semiprimeassociativealgebraswithinvolutionduetothenewconceptofapure ad-nilpotentelement,introducedinthisthesisinChapter2.Theconditionsonthe scalar ringshasbeenweakenedtobefreeof n s and s torsion with s := [n+1 2 ] instead of beingfreeof n! torsion.Ontheotherhand,fortheskew-symmetricad-nilpotent elementsofasemiprimeassociativealgebra R with involution , wehavegivena description thatdependsontheirad-nilpotentindexmodulo4.Inthisdescription wecanemphasize:Ifaskew-symmetricelement a is ad-nilpotentsuchthatitsindex of ad-nilpotenceof K := Skew(R; ) and R do notcoincide,thatis,adn aK = 0but adn aR 6= 0,(itcanonlyoccurforad-nilpotentindicesof K congruentto0or3modulo 4) thenacertaincornerof R satis es aPI,hence R holds aGPI.Theseresultshave beendevelopedthroughoutChapter2whichhaveoriginatedanarticlethathasbeen published inthejournal BulletinoftheMalaysianMathematicalSciencesSociety ([12]). Thesecondaim,todescribeinprimeassociativesuperalgebraswithsuperin- volutionnilpotentinnerderivations,hasalsobeenpositivelysolvedduringChapter 3. Thisdescriptiondependsontheparityofthehomogeneouselement:iftheelement is even,whathasbeendevelopedinthepreviouschapterinalgebrasettings([12]), is largelyrescued.However,iftheelementisodd,wehaveworkedonitssquare, whichisanevenad-nilpotentelement,andwehaveappliedthedescriptionsforeven ad-nilpotentelementsstudiedabove.Theseresultshasbeenpublishedinthejournal LinearandMultilinearAlgebra ([28]). DuringChapter4,wehavegivenexamples for eachofthecasesappearinginthedescriptionsoftheelementsinbothalgebras VI and superalgebras,thusshowingthatthesedescriptionsarenottrivial.Finally,in Chapter 5,wehaveassociatedaJordansuperstructuretoaLiesuperalgebra L with a homogeneous ad-nilpotentelement a of index3or4,accordingtoitsparity.Further- more, theJordansuperpairwehaveconstructedfollowingthespiritofthepaperofA.
