Abstract:
Several Nil-subgroups of the Bass' nilpotent unitary $K_1$-group of a unitary ring are introduced and some properties of these Nil-groups are proved. These properties are unitary analog of the well-known properties of the Bass' nilpotent $K_1$-group of a ring in algebraic $K$-theory.
Key words and phrases:unitary ring, unitary group, unitary $K_1$-functor, unitary Bass' nilpotent $K_1$-group, nipotent unitary matrices.
