Abstract
In the present paper, we introduce the notion of non-abelian tensor product of a given precrossed module by one of its ideals. We use this concept to study the second homology and the nilpotent multiplier of a precrossed module. We also describe the Ganea term for the c-nilpotent multiplier and the universal central extension of precrossed modules in term of the non-abelian tensor product.
