Let k k ' be a field extension. We give relations between the kernels of higher derivations on k [ X ] and k ' [ X ] , where k [ X ] : = k [ x 1 , , x n ] denotes the polynomial ring in n variables over the field k . More precisely, let D = { D n } n = 0 a higher k -derivation on k [ X ] and D ' = { D n ' } n = 0 a higher k ' -derivation on k ' [ X ] such that D m ' ( x i ) = D m ( x i ) for all m 0 and i = 1 , 2 , , n . Then (1) k [ X ] D = k if and only if k ' [ X ] D ' = k ' ; (2) k [ X ] D is a finitely generated k -algebra if and only if k ' [ X ] D ' is a finitely generated k ' -algebra. Furthermore, we also show that the kernel k [ X ] D of a higher derivation D of k [ X ] can be generated by a set of closed polynomials.

AB - Let $k\subseteq k^{\prime }$ be a field extension. We give relations between the kernels of higher derivations on $k[X]$ and $k^{\prime }[X]$, where $k[X]:=k[x_1,\dots ,x_n]$ denotes the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over the field $k$. More precisely, let $D=\lbrace D_n\rbrace _{n=0}^\infty $ a higher $k$-derivation on $k[X]$ and $D^{\prime }=\lbrace D_n^{\prime }\rbrace _{n=0}^\infty $ a higher $k^{\prime }$-derivation on $k^{\prime }[X]$ such that $D^{\prime }_m(x_i)=D_m(x_i)$ for all $m\ge 0$ and $i=1,2,\dots ,n$. Then (1) $k[X]^D=k$ if and only if $k^{\prime }[X]^{D^{\prime }}=k^{\prime }$; (2) $k[X]^D$ is a finitely generated $k$-algebra if and only if $k^{\prime }[X]^{D^{\prime }}$ is a finitely generated $k^{\prime }$-algebra. Furthermore, we also show that the kernel $k[X]^D$ of a higher derivation $D$ of $k[X]$ can be generated by a set of closed polynomials.
