Abstract: We consider a Weitzenb"ock derivation $Delta$ acting on a polynomial ring $R=K[x{i}_1,x{i}_2,\mathrm{...},x{i}_m]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0. The $K$-algebra $R^{D}elta=hinRmidDelta(h)=0$ is called the algebra of constants. Nowicki considered the case where the Jordan matrix for $Delta$ acting on $R_1$, the degree 1 component of $R$, has only Jordan blocks of size 2. He conjectured (cite{N}) that a certain set generates $R^{Delta}$ in that case. Recently Koury (cite{Kh}), Drensky and Makar-Limanov (cite{DM}) and Kuroda (cite{K}) have given proofs of Nowicki's conjecture. Here we consider the case where the Jordan matrix for $Delta$ acting on $R_1$ has only Jordan blocks of size at most 3. Here we use combinatorial methods to give a minimal set of generators $mathcalG$ for the algebra of constants $R^{Delta}$. Moreover, we show how our proof yields an algorithm to express any $hin{R}^{D}elta$ as a polynomial in the elements of $mathcalG$. In particular, our solution shows how the classical techniques of polarization and restitution may be used to augment the techniques of SAGBI bases to construct generating sets for subalgebras.
