It turns out that these algebras are actually complete intersections. For other representations we demonstrate that the dimension of the top degree of the coinvariants grows at least linearly with respect to the number of summands of dimension at least four in the representation. © 2016 American Mathematical Society.EnglishArticle10.1090/proc/132451088-6826
