On Some Properties of Polynomial Bases of Subspaces over the Field of Rational Functions in Several Variables

Spaces of multiparameter rational vectors, i.e., of vectors whose components are rational functions in several variables, and polynomial bases of their subspaces are considered. The conjecture that any subspace in the space of multiparameter rational vectors possesses a free polynomial basis, i.e., a basis such that the associated basis multiparameter polynomial matrix has no finite regular spectrum, is disproved by an example. Some consequences of this fact are indicated. Simpler proofs of some properties of the singular spectra of basis polynomial matrices corresponding to the null-spaces of a singular polynomial matrix are presented. Bibliography: 5 titles.
