Let N (d, n) be the variety of all d-tuples of commuting nilpotent n× n matrices. It is well-known that N (d, n) is irreducible if d= 2, if n⩽ 3 or if d= 3 and n= 4. On the other hand N (3, n) is known to be reducible for n⩾ 13. We study in this paper the reducibility of N (d, n) for various values of d and n. In particular, we prove that N (d, n) is reducible for all d, n⩾ 4. In the case d= 3, we show that it is irreducible for n⩽ 6.
