Nilpotent Jacobian maps in dimension three and stable tameness in block extensions

We study polynomial maps in three variables with nilpotent Jacobian over a field of characteristic zero. The proposed classification reduces maps with linearly independent components to a family determined by a univariate polynomial evaluated at a quadratic coordinate. The geometric part of the argument produces two algebraically dependent constant linear combinations of the components. A derivation argument then yields the normal form over the original field. We obtain explicit polynomial inverses and tame factorizations. We then study higher-dimensional maps in which all but the last three components depend on three variables. For this class, we give separate normal forms for the two three-variable blocks and deduce stable tameness from the residue-field criterion of Berson, van den Essen, and Wright.
