    This paper is concerned with a mutual relation between p-completion and groups Aut(X) of self homotopy equivalences. Let \(W_{Z/p}\) denote the \(H_*(-;Z/p)-\)localization of a space W and let \(Aut_{\#}(X)\) denote the kernel of the canonical homomorphism Aut(X)\(\to \prod_{i}Aut \pi_ i(X)\). Suppose X is a based, nilpotent, connected space which is either a finite CW-complex or finitely anticonnected of finite type. The author proves that \(Hom_ Z(Z/p^{\infty}\), \(Aut_{\#}(X))=0\), \(Aut_{\#}(X_{Z/p})\) is p-complete and the induced homomorphism \(Ext_ Z(Z/p^{\infty}\), \(Aut_{\#}(X))\to Aut_{\#}(X_{Z/p})\) is an isomorphism. The main result is proved by the induction argument using the Postnikov tower of X and using the corresponding property of nilpotent groups.
