The
algebra
T
n
(
k
)
consists of the lower triangular
n
by
n
matrices
over
k
. Its
Jacobson radical
N
consists of the strictly
lower triangular matrices
, and
N
i
=
span
{
e
rs
:
r
−
s
≥
i
}
.

The
n
simple left
modules
S

are one-dimensional, with
a
matrix
acting
through its

diagonal
entry. For the left regular
