Ž .w x Let K X be the quotient field of the polynomial ring K X over an algebraically closed field K. Given an integer n G 2, a finite sequence m s Ž . Ž . m, . . . , m of n y 1 positive integers, a sequence ␣ s ␣ , . . . , ␣ of K-linear 2 n 2 n Ž . functionals on K X , and a height function h, there is attached a Kronecker Ž . module E s E m, h, ␣ . In this paper we show that when E has no finite-dimensional direct summand then End E is a commutative K-subalgebra of the algebra Ž . of n = n matrices over K X . Consequently, when End E is an integral domain its transcendence degree over K is at most one. We give sufficient conditions for End E to be isomorphic to K and also show that K is the only field that occurs as w x w y1 x Ž . n End E. Examples where K X , K X, X , and some subalgebras of K X occur as End E are given. The determination of all the commutative K-subalgebras of Ž Ž .. M K X realizable as End E remains open. Yet surprisingly it can be shown that n the coordinate ring of a cubic equation in Weierstrass normal form Y 2 s X 3 q aX 2 q bX q c is realizable.
