 Ad-nilpotent elements of semiprime rings with involution Let $R$ be an $n!$-torsion free semiprime ring with involution $*$ and with extended centroid $C$, where $n\gt 1$ is a positive integer. We characterize $a\in K$, the Lie algebra of skew elements in $R$, satisfying $(\operatorname{ad}_a)^n=0$ on $K$. This generalizes both Martindale and Miers' theorem and the theorem of Brox et al. To prove it we first prove that if $a, b\in R$ satisfy $(\operatorname{ad}_a)^n=\operatorname{ad}_b$ on $R$, where either $n$ is even or $b=0$, then $\big(a-\lambda\big)^{[\frac{n+1}{2}]}=0$ for some $\lambda\in C$. Keywords:Semiprime ring, Lie algebra, Jordan algebra, faithful $f$-free, involution, skew (symmetric) element, ad-nilpotent element, Jordan elementCategories:16N60, 16W10, 17B60

 Heat Kernels of Lorentz Cones We obtain an explicit formula for heat kernels of Lorentz cones, a family of classical symmetric cones. By this formula, the heat kernel of a Lorentz cone is expressed by a function of time $t$ and two eigenvalues of an element in the cone. We obtain also upper and lower bounds for the heat kernels of Lorentz cones. Keywords:Lorentz cone, symmetric cone, Jordan algebra, heat kernel, heat equation, Laplace-Beltrami operator, eigenvaluesCategories:35K05, 43A85, 35K15, 80A20
