The Kronecker modules,
$\mathbb{V}\left( m,h,\alpha\right)$ , where
$m$ is a positive integer,
$h$ is a height function, and
$\alpha $ is a
$K$ -linear functional on the space
$K(X)$ of rational functions in one variable
$X$ over an algebraically closed field
$K$ , are models for the family of all torsion-free rank-2 modules that are extensions of finite-dimensional rank-1 modules. Every such module comes with a regulating polynomial
$f$ in
$K(X)[Y]$ . When the endomorphism algebra of
$\mathbb{V}\left( m,h,\alpha\right)$ is commutative and non-trivial, the regulator
$f$ must be quadratic in
$Y$ . If
$f$ has one repeated root in
$K(X)$ , the endomorphism algebra is the trivial extension
$K\ltimes S$ for some vector space
$S$ . If
$f$ has distinct roots in
$K(X)$ , then the endomorphisms form a structure that we call a bridge. These include the coordinate rings of some curves. Regardless of the number of roots in the regulator, those End
$\mathbb{V}\left( m,h,\alpha\right)$ that are domains have zero radical. In addition, each semi-local End
$\mathbb{V}\left( m,h,\alpha\right)$ must be either a trivial extension
$K\ltimes S$ or the product
$K\times K$ .
