    The author studies necessary and sufficient conditions under which a \(2\times 2\) matrix with entries in an integral domain can be expressed as a product of two idempotent matrices or two nilpotent matrices. For both problems, the cases of interest are matrices with null second row and those with entries all different from zero.
