Abstract: Let $B$ be an $nimesn$ nilpotent matrix with entries in an infinite field $k$. Assume that $B$ is in Jordan canonical form with the associated Jordan block partition $P$. In this paper, we study a poset $mathcal{D}_P$ associated to the nilpotent commutator of $B$ and a certain partition of $n$, denoted by $lambd{a}_U(P)$, defined in terms of the lengths of unions of special chains in $mathcal{D}_P$. Polona Oblak associated to a given partition $P$ another partition $Ob(P)$ resulting from a recursive process. She conjectured that $Ob(P)$ is the same as the Jordan partition $Q(P)$ of a generic element of the nilpotent commutator of $B$. Roberta Basili, Anthony Iarrobino and the author later generalized the process introduced by Oblak. In this paper we show that all such processes result in the partition $lambd{a}_U(P)$.
