In this paper we consider idealizers in the second Weyl algebra A2, which is the ring of differential operators on k[x,y] (in characteristic 0). Specifically, let f be a polynomial in x and y which defines an irreducible curve whose singularities are all cusps. We show that the idealizer of the right ideal fA2 in A2 is always left and right noetherian, extending the work of McCaffrey.}, author = {Reynolds, R} }
