Abstract
We consider a finite permutation group acting naturally on a vector space over a field . A well known theorem of G\"obel asserts that the corresponding ring of invariants is generated by invariants of degree at most . In this note we show that if the characteristic of is zero then the top degree of vector coinvariants is also bounded above by , which implies the degree bound for the ring of vector invariants . So G\"obel's bound almost holds for vector invariants in characteristic zero as well.
