Abstract

Let K\mathbb K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, K[X]\mathbb K[X] the polynomial ring in nn variables. The vector space Tn=K[X]T_n = \mathbb K[X] is a K[X]\mathbb K[X]-module with the action xiv=vxix_i \cdot v = v_{x_i}' for vTnv \in T_n. Every finite dimensional submodule VV of TnT_n is nilpotent, i.e. every polynomial fK[X]f \in \mathbb K[X] with zero constant term acts nilpotently (by multiplication) on V.V. We prove that every nilpotent K[X]\mathbb K[X]-module VV of finite dimension over K\mathbb K with one dimensional socle can be isomorphically embedded in the module TnT_n. The automorphism groups of the module TnT_n and its finite dimensional monomial submodules are found. Similar results are obtained for (non-nilpotent) finite dimensional K[X]\mathbb K[X]-modules with one dimensional socle.
