Abstract
For a ring endomorphism \(\alpha \), we consider the problem of determining when an element f of the skew Hurwitz series ring \( (HR, \alpha )\) is nilpotent. As an application, it is shown that the skew Hurwitz series ring \( (HR, \alpha )\) is weak zip (resp. weak symmetric) if and only if R is weak zip (resp. weak symmetric) under some additional conditions. We also characterize when a skew Hurwitz series ring is 2-primal.
