In linear algebra, a nilpotent matrix is a square matrix N such that for some positive integer . The smallest such is called the index of , sometimes the degree of . More generally, a nilpotent transformation is a linear transformation of a vector space such that for some positive integer (and thus, for all ). Both of these concepts are special cases of a more general concept of nilpotence that applies to elements of rings. (Wikipedia).
If N is a nilpotent operator on a finite-dimensional vector space, then there is a basis of the vector space with respect to which N has a matrix with only 0's on and below the diagonal.
