Any good anagrams for nipotent?

The term "nipotent" is not commonly used in mathematics. However, in some sources, "nipotent" is used as a variant of the term "nilpotent." In mathematics, an element or operator is said to be nilpotent if raising it to some positive integer power results in the zero element or operator. In other words, for a nilpotent element a, there exists a positive integer n such that a^n = 0. It is possible that "nipotent" is a spelling error or a typo.
