Differential operators on some affine cones (Q1263643)

An elementary proof is given of the following result of \textit{I. N. Bernstein}, \textit{I. M. Gel'fand} and \textit{S. I. Gel'fand} [Usp. Mat. Nauk 27, No.1, 185-190 (1972; Zbl 0253.58009)]. Theorem. Let \(A=k[x,y,z]/(F)\) where F is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 3 defining a nonsingular curve. Then the ring of differential operators D(A) on A has infinite ascending chains of two sided ideals. Some related results are also discussed.
